Explore Utelle with the Nice Côte d’Azur Metropolitan Convention and Visitors Bureau
Perched on the ridge, at the confluence of the Var and Vésubie, at the top of a steep slope where the olive trees hang, Utelle offers a beautiful medieval ensemble. The streets and alleys are lined with steps to discover its old stone houses, its old doors, its fountains or pointed arches… A small path goes around the village and allows you to discover a panoramic view of the peaks of Haute Vésubie.
