Valberg sits between the Var valley and the Mercantour national park, at around 1,700 m, and it is the gentlest of the Alpes-Maritimes resorts: wooded, sunny and built squarely around families.

It is smaller than Auron or Isola and makes no attempt to compete with them on size. What it offers is calm.
