The Gorges du Verdon
The jewel of Provence

Texte de l'élément

The Gorges du Verdon is considered one of the largest canyons in Europe, it has a spectacular, green landscape. The Verdon River is flanked by steep, dizzying white cliffs, which reach up to 700 metres. You can explore this magnificent natural site on the route of the gorges, along the ‘corniche sublime’, with its many balconies and breathtaking views. Various activities are available, such as hiking and climbing, or perhaps the peaceful pedalos and canoes on Sainte Croix lake. If you would like something more challenging, why not try white water rafting, canoeing or swimming?
