The pre-alps in the Alps maritime region offer fabulous walking and cycling opportunities and in the winter months there are easily accessible ski resorts. There are also the Esterel and the Maures range of hills which are close to the sea and have wonderful moderate to easy walks and mountain bike trails, many of which command fabulous sea views. Further inland the Gorge du Verdon is one of the most spectacular geological sights in Europe. The Cote d'Azur flora and fauna is exceptional and there is a wide range of sports and outdoors activities in the Cote d'Azur.
