Maritime Alps: Three Hikes above the Tinée valley
Maritime Alps: Three Hikes above the Tinée valley
The Tinée river has created the deepest valley in the french maritime Alps. Hiking here means suffering large differences in altitude, with superb views and a lot of diversity as rewards. Adding to this diversity is the fact that Roure, our 'base camp' overlooking the Tinée from a balcony position, is situated right at the border between Alps and Méditerranée.

Bruno Marchand from the milk farm of Roure moves up to the high plateau of Longon in summer. Herbs and flowers from this national park heartland give the milk a different taste, resulting in a rare hard cheese, the Tome de Roure.
