North of Mercantour and within the confines of the Alpes-Maritimes, this stay will unfold in the valley of the Haut Var, the furthest and most remote in the department, well off the beaten path. Wild nature, hamlets and barns give this valley its distinct character and unique charm.
Estenc houses still today one of the last few remaining populations of the Western Capercaillie (or "Black Grouse") whose life will be recounted by your nature guide and national park partner!
