The village of Saorge overhangs the gorges of the Roya. The church of the Franciscan convent, which was founded in 1633, was built in the Baroque style. The refectory features painted decorations from the 17th century and the cloister is decorated with 18th century frescœs showing the life of Saint Franis of Assisi. The monastery houses a fascinating collection of nine sundials from the 17th, 18th, and 19th century.

Wolves have been reintroduced into the upper valley, but prevented from going down the valley to farms etc, by a large fence. The fence has viewing platforms and windows enabling visitors to see them from close by. There is also a great show of tame birds of prey.
