In summer, the beaches of the Côte d’Azur attract hordes of travellers in search of sunshine. To preserve its territory in the face of a large number of tourists who sometimes come from the other side of the planet, the region is committed.
There is no shortage of natural riches in the South-East of France. With no less than 8 regional nature parks, preservation and awareness-raising are central concerns.
From the foothills of the Queyras to the vast expanses of the Camargue, rich in biodiversity, the natural areas of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur are a playground for the responsible traveller.
