Nature holidays in France |The wolf park with rooms in the trees

For lovers of life,  “into the wild” area of Alpes-Maritimes in the south of France is a perfect spot, all in all not so far away for us, especially if we find ourselves in Liguria and Piedmont. Around here there is a certain feeling about the local species and one of the magical places in this sense is the Parc des Loups of Saint-Martin-Vésubie in the Mercantour National Park, one of the nine largest parks in France, about 60 km north of Nice and Menton. The park is open daily from 10:00 to 18:00 (you can check online the calendar with closures), but be careful because the ticket office closes at 16.30 and entrance costs 12 € for adults and 10 € for children aged 4 to 12 years (free under 4 years).
