Holidays that combine sea and mountains are among the most enchanting experiences Southern Europe has to offer – especially now that the Tenda Tunnel has reopened, seamlessly connecting Limone Piemonte with the French Riviera. This still undiscovered itinerary invites travellers to explore two complementary worlds in one stay: the lively elegance of the Mediterranean coast and the peaceful silence of the Italian Alps.

Sleeping in the mountains for true relaxation

In Limone Piemonte, time seems to slow down. Between cozy chalets, boutique hotels and panoramic mountain lodges, mornings begin with the scent of pine trees and nights are lulled by the quiet of the peaks. Here, relaxation is authentic: no crowds, just nature’s rhythm and the warm welcome of an alpine village.

Activities for every taste: nature, sports and local flavours

Beyond the scenic hikes that start right from the village centre, the area offers endless opportunities:

  • Trekking and nature walks in the Maritime Alps Natural Park, dotted with alpine lakes and breathtaking viewpoints.

  • Mountain biking and e-biking, with trails for every skill level winding through woods and old border paths.

  • Food and wine experiences, from hearty mountain dishes to artisanal cheeses and local wines.

  • Outdoor fun for families, including adventure parks, horseback riding and rafting in nearby valleys.

  • Canyoning and river adventures during the summer months to explore hidden gorges and waterfalls.

The Riviera, just an hour away

Thanks to the Tenda Tunnel, in under 60 minutes you can reach iconic seaside destinations such as Menton, Nice, Èze and Monaco. A day at the beach becomes a quick getaway, while evenings are spent under the fresh mountain sky – the perfect balance between Mediterranean vibrance and alpine tranquillity, far from the bustling tourist routes.

An exclusive, authentic escape

What makes this itinerary truly unique is its authentic charm. Off the beaten track, this journey between Alps and Mediterranean reveals picturesque villages, panoramic roads, and timeless traditions. It’s the ideal holiday for those seeking stunning scenery, outdoor adventures and intimate moments of peace, without giving up modern comforts and little luxuries.

With the Tenda Tunnel now open again, it’s easy to embrace two worlds in one trip – a rare travel experience that harmoniously blends the blue of the sea with the green of the mountains.
