Set in the heart of the southern Alps at 1,700 metres' altitude, the charming village of Valberg stands at the gateway to Mercantour National Park.
This friendly and authentic resort is also within one and a quarter hours of the Mediterranean coast, a beautiful drive through the Gorges of Cians or Daluis.
Valberg first opened its slopes to visitors in 1936, when it boasted the first sledge-lift in the Alpes Maritimes – and will soon celebrate its 80th year! It is the longest-established mountain resort in the region, popular for its warm, friendly atmosphere and comfortable mix of village houses, traditional farms and modern accommodation set in a breathtaking natural environment – all bathed in the constant sunshine of the nearby Riviera. Valberg's commanding position at the top of a pass gives it fabulous westward views over the Saint Honorat mountain chain and eastwards to Mont Mounier, the meadows of Beuil and the Couillole pass.

Mountain based activities, whether sporting or non-sporting, summer or winter, are empowering elements to life but please note that many may not be suitable for your condition or specific need. Activity providers, guides and instructors will often go out of their way to accommodate the needs of everyone but please understand if they are unable to do so for you. Always worth making further enquiries either via the organization responsible, the tourist office or Ski 2 Freedom.

To get a better idea and understanding of the ski resort of Valberg and what else they can offer you for your holiday, we suggest you look up their website as every Tourist Office offers a fascinating and exciting insight into what they and the surrounding area can offer visitors. In addition many have a dedicated website or page for those who are in need of assistance, disabled, with young children and babies and those of us just getting on a bit in life!
Mountains 4 All would like to make it clear that we regard everyone as an individual and that no two people will have the same needs and requirements. Therefore please note that what you see on this page regarding assisted or adaptive skiing and accommodation, may not be suitable for you, or someone you know. However, if you think this destination would be a good ski resort for you, then please contact us to discuss your personal requirements and we will endeavour to see if the resort will meet these.
We hope that you have found the information on this page helpful and a chance to make a decision on where to go for your winter holiday. However, we know that often much more discussion is required and therefore we invite you to contact us as we hold extensive information on all our ski resorts – please contact us.
Our information has and is obtained by means of extensive personal research at a cost, often to the Foundation, we only give this out to those that request it and is not for general public use. For our beneficiaries this information is free but for a company or organisation we make a nominal charge via donation.
Mountains 4 All provides specific information on the activities for skiers with a disability, additional need or life-challenging illness, etc. plus useful extras such as wheelchair accessible places to stay; so we are not going to also reproduce amazing information and advice on ski resorts which has been collected by ski journalists, skiers and ski companies which are dedicated to this service - what we can do is to link you to these sites which may well give you some extra background information on a specific ski resort and help you make up your mind as to where you might go!
