In the southeast of France, travelers can experience all the climatic zones of Europe in a small area: From the glaciers of the four-thousand-meter peaks in the Écrins National Park to the Mediterranean world of the Côte d’Azur. In summer, millions of tourists from all over Europe flock to the French Riviera and the picturesque villages of Provence. Peace and quiet can then only be found in a few remote mountain valleys.
