In the heart of nature. Enjoy a beautiful ride where you will have access to a very beautiful waterfall on arrival with transparent water.

The Tuves Bridge is a superb Genoese stone structure built over the Siagne River. It was built in 1802 on Roman remains and made it possible to cross the border between the departments of Var and Alpes-Maritimes in the heart of the Siagne gorges. The topo-guide for this hike to the Pont des Tuves starts from Montauroux in the Var. There is another longer route from the village of Saint Cézaire sur Siagne in the Alpes-Maritimes. On this side it bears another name: the Bridge of Gabres.

6) Black Colle Castle

Residence located at the entrance to the Pays de Fayence. The castle is built on a promontory dominating the plain of Montauroux. It belongs to Parfums Christian Dior

This house, I would like it to be my real home. The one where – if God gives me long life – I can retire. The one where – if I have the means – I will be able to complete the circle of my existence and find, in another climate, the closed garden that protected my childhood. The one where I can finally live in peace, forgetting Christian Dior to simply become Christian again. Christian Dior, Memoirs

The castle cannot be visited but you can see the environment.

Location: 220 RD 562, 83440 Montauroux
