Saorge

Highlight • Settlement

Small gem carved into the stone between rock and sky. It is worth leaving the valley floor and cycling the short climb to this beautiful village. Access prohibited to cars.

View of Breil-sur-Roya

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view opens up on its own as you descend from the Col de Brauis. Slow down briefly and take a look.

Pass at 879 meters that gives the feeling of being much higher, with a clear view of the surrounding meadows. Small inn with water.

Nice Village. I ate at a very good restaurant. Incredibly cheap, though.

Sospel

Highlight • Settlement

Sospel, with its old bridge spanning the Bévéra river, its arcades, its washhouses and its old houses will charm you. You will clearly see an Italian influence, with the cheerful colors of some houses and clothes drying on the balconies. The town also has a mountainous look with its buildings constructed from local stones, giving it an undeniable austere air.

Sospel

Highlight • Settlement

In Sospel, you are already in Italy!

You will discover very pretty streets and alleys with colorful houses where it is pleasant to stroll, a superb baroque-style cathedral, but also the Pont-Vieux, as well as several still standing Maginot Line fortifications.
