Greolieres

Tucked into the limestone foothills above the Loup valley, Gréolières is a place whose character is shaped by its steep mountain setting. This Alpes-Maritimes commune lies within the Préalpes d’Azur Regional Natural Park, where oak and pine woodland gives way to open slopes and upland ridges. The old settlement retains a medieval pattern of narrow lanes and stone-built houses, overlooked by the remains of the Château de Gréolières. Higher in the commune, the Gréolières-les-Neiges ski area brings winter sport to the slopes of the Cheiron massif, while warmer months suit walking and cycling through the Provençal interior. Its setting shows how quickly the Côte d’Azur’s coastal world yields to a more rugged hinterland.
