A touring destination in the heart of the Alps
RivierAlp creates great crossings between the Alps and the Mediterranean. It’s a cross-border itinerary network between France and Italy, comprising 9 walking routes and 7 cycling routes, totalling more than 430 km! Designed to accommodate a wide range of activities – hiking, road biking, mountain biking, gravel biking or VTTAE – you can discover the area at your own pace. You can walk for several days, cycle from one valley to the next, link mountain and sea, or choose a stage to suit your level of ability. Everywhere, the same spirit: take your time, discover and experience the RivierAlp region.
There’s also a huge diversity of landscapes at every stage. On the French side, the Roya and Bévéra valleys, as far as the Menton coastline, offer a spectacular transition to the sea, with its hilltop villages, fortified heritage and balconies overlooking the Mediterranean.
Along the way, you’ll pass through authentic villages, discovering a living heritage, emblematic places and encounters that give meaning to the journey. Local restaurants, local produce and local know-how are all along the way, inviting you to explore the region in a different way, beyond the route, through its flavours and its stories.
And the adventure doesn’t stop there. RivierAlp is also a fantastic outdoor playground, where you can climb, fly, canyoneer your way through the gorges and enjoy a whole host of experiences that combine effort, discovery and thrills.
