Utelle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Utelle, roughly 40 miles northeast of Nice, in the Alpes-Maritimes département of southeastern France, is a village and commune of roughly 140 permanent residents, perched on a hill along the Vesubie Gorge, not far from the Mercantour National Park.
Formerly an agricultural village planted with numerous olive trees, the village is near the Madonne d'Utelle, a chapel that serves as an annual pilgrimage site for local Catholics.
