Coming from the north, there are two very different routes. The first option is to travel mostly via toll roads—comfortable and relaxed driving (Route du Soleil).
The second route goes through the mountains—a very scenic route (Route Napoléon), but with many bends.
In practice, the travel time does not differ much between the two. The choice is yours. Both routes start just north of Lyon.
All routes pass through Puget-Théniers, the last stop before you head up into the mountains. You will find all essential shops here where you can do any necessary grocery shopping.
When you leave Puget-Théniers, please give us a quick call or send a text message so we can be ready to welcome you (M +31653776732 and + 33634386082).
Upon departure from Puget, cross the modern suspension bridge towards La Penne via the D2211A. Continue on this road until you reach a turn-off to Saint-Pierre (D10).
On the D10, after approximately 800 meters, you will encounter a bend to the left.
On your right-hand side, you will see a post with two directional signs pointing left, marked “La Lauve” and “La Combe.”
Follow this direction, and after about 200 meters, on your left-hand side, you will see the Romantic-Hunting-Lodge-en- Provence** for Romantic-Rêve-en-Provence and Romantic-Louvetaux-en-Provence**. Continue along the path for another 800 meters.
The scenic narrow-gauge “Train des Pignes” (see https://www.trainprovence.com), a railway line featured in major railway documentaries and popular with tourists, runs between Nice and Digne and stops at Puget-Théniers. Enjoy a slow journey along the Var River while observing the changing landscape, from Mediterranean scenery to Alpine terrain. This scenic train ride only make sense when you pick up your family members or friends yourself at the station of Puget-Théniers.
