Fontan is a village in the Roya Valley, in the Alpes-Maritimes, between the Alpine slopes and the course of the river. The landscape alternates between wooded hillsides, steep terrain and scattered hamlets. The village suits travellers looking for mountain walks and stops in a valley that is less urban than the coast. The Roya accompanies part of the route and gives this border valley its character.

Fontan-Saorge railway station is 600 m from the accommodation. The village of Saorge, known for its houses rising up the slope and its Franciscan monastery, can be explored on foot along its stone lanes. The Écomusée du Train des Merveilles, 6.9 km away, tells the story of the valley’s railway. Mercantour National Park covers the surrounding mountains; its trails take you through Alpine landscapes, with routes suited to different levels. The Roya road connects the villages in the valley and lets you drive between hiking trailheads.

In fine weather, the area is suited to walks and outdoor activities; in spring and summer, the trails offer a way to discover the hills and perched villages. In autumn, the hillsides take on changing colours. In winter, skiing is one of the possible activities in the surrounding area, depending on conditions and which sites are open. You can spend a day walking around Saorge, exploring Mercantour and returning to Fontan to enjoy the terrace and mountain views.
