Sightseeing in the Haute Provence

RCN les Collines de Castellane

Over 25 kilometres long and plunging 1,000 metres in places, the Gorge du Verdon is the most impressive gorge of southern France. This European equivalent of the Grand Canyon offers spectacular views and a range of adventure tours and activities. The Haute Provence also boasts atmospheric old villages and historical towns, nestled in a beautiful landscape with purple lavender fields, olive trees and other Mediterranean greenery.

Canyoning for young and old

Canyoning for young and old

Mountaineering in this setting is something different. The Gorges du Verdon is Europe's biggest canyon. One of the most exhilarating ways of mountaineering is canyoning, in which nature is your track. You follow the river passing the rocks and trough the landscape. You hike, climb and abseil and the rivers work as natural slides.
