GR®510 - 8 Valleys trail
From Breil-sur-Roya to St-Cezaire-sur-Siagne (Alpes-Maritimes)
|
|
The GR510 trail traverses the Roya, Bévéra, Vésubie, Tinée, Cians, Var, Estéron, and Siagne valleys. This undulating landscape offers a striking illustration of the Alpine altitudinal zonation, taking hikers from Mediterranean olive groves to high-altitude larch forests. Along the way, hikers encounter medieval hilltop villages, Baroque chapels adorned with colorful frescoes, and ancient stone bridges. The route follows the old cross-valley communication routes that allowed local populations to travel between the valleys without descending back to the coast. The natural environment is wild and unspoiled, harboring exceptional biodiversity at the crossroads of Alpine and Provençal influences.
