The Var is a river located in the Alpes-Maritimes département, in the south-east of France. The name Var originates from the Ligurian word for waterway. Rising on the Col de la Cayolle (2,326 m/7,631 ft) and flowing generally southeast for 130 km (81 mi) into the Mediterranean between Nice and Saint-Laurent du Var. It is a unique case in France of a river not flowing in the département that has the same name (see Var). |
