Welcome to the Nice hinterland!

Just 1h30 from the French Riviera and at the gateway to Mercantour National Park, the Le Rabuons holiday village is the perfect place to discover exceptional landscapes under the Mediterranean sun, far from the crowds and scorching heat.

Perched at 1,140 m altitude, the mountain village of Saint-Étienne-de-Tinée promises a holiday that is both relaxing and refreshing!

Thanks to several hiking trails accessible directly from the hotel, you can explore the most beautiful alpine landscapes: forests, streams, waterfalls, high-altitude lakes, geological formations, hamlets, refuges, and the exceptional flora and fauna of Mercantour National Park. Ibex, chamois, mouflon, deer, roe deer, wild boar, and wolves coexist here. Some wolf packs, returning since 1992, have even settled in the Haute Tinée area.

As a partner of the Guides Tinée Mercantour association, Le Rabuons also allows you to enjoy summer activities such as mountaineering, climbing, mountain biking, Nordic walking, and trail running.

Extra: A leisure park (Le Petit Bois des Lutins), popular with children of all ages, and a free lake are located just 500 m from the village, offering swimming, slides, and kayak rentals.

This summer, choose a 100% nature holiday!

Le Rabuons welcomes you in the heart of Saint-Étienne-de-Tinée, nestled in a wide sunlit valley.

After a relaxing day at the lake or a beautiful hike in the Mercantour Park, known for its wild character, unwind at the village bar—or burn some energy in the fitness room! Book lovers will also enjoy the peaceful library corner at the holiday village.

For food lovers of all ages, the chef at Le Rabuons offers traditional cuisine, local specialties, and barbecue evenings with full-board or half-board options.

At lunchtime, for those who want to combine culinary pleasures with scenic views, packed lunches can be prepared on request the day before. Take them along the hiking trails and enjoy them while admiring the stunning local flora and fauna.
