Peone

Péone has been a mountain settlement in the Alpes-Maritimes since the Middle Ages. In the southern French Alps, the commune occupies the Tuébi valley, a tributary of the Var, beneath the reddish rock needles known as the Aiguilles de Péone. Its compact old centre of narrow lanes and stone houses reflects terrain that leaves little level ground in this part of the mountains. Péone is also the historic village above Valberg, the nearby ski resort, whose slopes extend across its territory. In warmer months, local roads and paths draw walkers and cyclists, while the distinctive spires remain the area’s defining landmark.
