In the hinterland of Nice, less than 25 km * from the Promenade des Anglais, the Paillon Valley reveals a medieval village with preserved charm, surrounded by nature. A well-marked panoramic route takes you there from Nice, via Contes or Tourrette-Levens. Châteauneuf-Villevieille takes its name from the old village of Châteauneuf-de-Contes, whose remarkably preserved fortified remains are two hundred meters higher.
Built at an altitude of 519 m, spread on the slope of Mont Macaron amid olive trees and cypress trees, Châteauneuf-Villevieille enjoys a privileged location and offers fantastic views of the surrounding small mountains and valley. Not far from the major highways, the village is easy to reach: 35 minutes is enough to reach Nice, 40 minutes to get to Nice Côte d´Azur airport via the A8, known as “La Provençale”. A bus line runs to Nice several times a day. Less than seven hundred people live in this village, which is often visited by hikers who seek out the clean mountain air. There are therefore many walking and cycling routes in the mountains behind Nice.
