Looking for fresh air and Nordic skiing in the heart of the Mercantour? Cross-country ski rental at La Colmiane is the ideal way to enjoy the pristine landscapes, larch forests and panoramic views of the peaks. Just a stone's throw from the Alpine trails, Nordic itineraries wind their way up to the high plateaus, and the nearby Boréon offers superb loops accessible to all levels. Whether you're a beginner, a family or a cardio enthusiast, there's something for everyone.

The weather plays a key role. Between December and March, cold mornings guarantee firm snow and good performance, especially after a clear night or a recent fall. Sunny days can soften the surface around midday: leave early for a smoother glide. If it's windy at the pass, opt for more sheltered loops in the forest.
