Between the Mediterranean and the Cheiron peaks, snowshoe rental in Gréolières Les Neiges is the ideal opportunity to discover another face of the Alpes-Maritimes. Here, winter is often bright, with sunny days after the snowfalls. Gentle relief alternates with wilder ridges, offering astonishing panoramic views of the Mercantour, the Esterel and, on a clear day, the sea.

Beginners will appreciate the forest routes and sheltered valleys, perfect for a warm-up. More inquisitive walkers will push on to the summit of the Cheiron to enjoy the sunset over the Côte d'Azur. The best time? Just after a cold night and a fresh snowfall, in the morning for buoyant snow and crisp air, or in the late afternoon when the lights turn golden and the resort becomes quieter.
