Escursionismo a Tende

Col de Diable (2430m) This is your last pass above 2000 m. It is named "Pass of the Devil", because for centuries nobody dared to pass it to the Vallée. After this col the landscape will change dramatically. From here on until Monaco no water to be found, so take plenty with you. A little after the Redoute you will come below 2000m. Camp d'Argent (1800m) The Gite is the only place to stay, but it is pleasant. They have dorms and a campsite.

Baisse de Valmasque (2550m) This is your last pass above 2500 m. After here you will enter the Vallée des Merveilles, where in the late stone-age magicians carved inscriptions in the rocks. Do not miss these! Large iron poles will direct you to places where they can be seen. Refuge des Merveilles (2130m) This hut is packed full of tourist groups during the high season. But 100m off the hut there is a free camp-site. You can still get meals in the Refuge.
