Gîte/refuge on the heights of Lac des Mesches. Easily accessible and close to the road, it is an ideal place to start hiking or as a base camp for exploring the superb Valley of Wonders and the Mercantour.

Gîte at the start of the trail to the petroglyphs. You can stay overnight or leave the bici here and visit them on foot.

Beautiful place immersed in the green of the pines, from the asphalted road that leads to Casterino you take a detour with a decidedly steep initial climb, but which leads to a beautiful valley. Definitely a must visit if you organize a tour nearby
