Endless hikes, varied terrain. Views on the trails above Antheor and Le Trayas over the coastline and sea are something else. Inland, you can find cool river ravines, surprising gumtree forests, as well as natural Provençal microclimates.

A great day trip with amazing views, a cool lake, and natural phenomena. TIP: Plan ahead a few days and BOOK YOUR RENTAL BOAT if you want to cruise up the Gorge. It can get very busy.

Valensole Town and vavender fields, a hot ticket in June, July and Early August! Still worth seeing later - but there will be less lavender as it is harvested mid summer.
