Maïthé and Jean-Paul welcome you in the charming farm of Transhumances, rehabilitated in rural lodgings and in guest houses, in Colmars-les-Alpes, in an exceptional setting.
La ferme des Transhumances, it's quite a story....
First and foremost, it's the story of generations of transhumant sheep farmers. It's also the story of a privileged site, overlooking the fortified town of Colmars-les-Alpes, with a 360° panorama of the Upper Verdon Valley. For Jean-Paul, joined by his wife Maïthé, it was a return to his roots.
In 1999 they opened 2 self-catering cottages. Farming and tourism are closely linked, and are organized according to the rhythm of the seasons. Today, the farm is home to a transhumant herd of Mérinos d'Arles cattle.
Whatever the season, they'll be delighted to show you around: the village fortifications and the Lance waterfall are just a stone's throw away, and hiking and snowshoeing trails leave from the farm... Nearby, over 1,000 km of marked trails and the ski slopes of Ratery and Val d'Allos await you. But be careful! The serenity of our landscapes could well be contagious...
