Saint-Martin-Vesubie

Saint-Martin-Vésubie straddles the Vésubie River in the Alpes-Maritimes mountains of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, and its high-valley position has made it a natural starting point for Mercantour National Park. The village sits below routes leading towards the Boréon valley and the lakes and peaks near the Italian border, where forests give way to alpine ground. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it developed as a summer resort, earning the nickname “the Swiss Nice” for its cool mountain air and Alpine setting. Its compact centre retains narrow lanes and stone-built houses. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Saint-Martin-Vésubie and the Vésubie valley.
