Carte du Mercantour

The Mercantour territory

With a length of 150 km, the territory extends over six valleys in the Southern Alps and covers two departments of France: the Alpes-Maritimes for about two-thirds of its surface, and the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. The crystalline massif of the Mercantour National Park has valleys filled with the scents of the Mediterranean, Provence, the Alps and ItalyVerdon, Cians-Var, Ubaye, Tinée, Vésubie and Roya-Bévéra: each valley has its own distinct character!

Camping à la Ferme Saint Joseph
De Caqueray Géraldine
Their values, their background

La Ferme Saint Joseph est un ancien verger transformé en camping. Géraldine, amoureuse de la nature a voulu conserver les anciens arbres fruitiers et donner à chaque emplacement un espace fleuri où il fait bon se reposer. Sarah sa fille, à la fin de ses études de tourisme et  désireuse de rester vivre dans nos montagnes, a créé une petite entreprise de confection de confitures en utilisant principalement les fruits du verger.

La Ferme Saint Joseph c'est une belle histoire de famille !
