Gorges du Verdon

The world-famous Gorges du Verdon are a flagship attraction of the Alpes de Haute Provence. With cliffs over 700 metres high, the Verdon canyon is the deepest in Europe, with an enchanting emerald river flowing at its feet.

Gréoux les Bains is a famous destination for sunny spa breaks.

And finally, to wind up your holiday with style, take a detour on the Valensole plateau to discover the vast lavender fields. It is unrivalled around the world!
