Le Trein des Merveilles
At the gates of Mercantour, enter the last kingdom before Italy, a treasure of the Haut-Pays. Leaving from Nice, the train travels through the valleys of Paillon and Roya Bévéra, affording a rich tapestry of landscape to the traveller. Enthusiasts will appreciate the 3 spiral tunnels on the line. Pretty and colourful villages are dotted along the peaceful railway: Peillon, Sospel, Breil, Saorge, La Brigue, and Tende.
