    Driving in a clockwise direction, the round is not quite as steep. When planning with Komoot, an inaccuracy in the OSM maps is noticeable. The road leads over the edge of the gorge and back again. In relief then Komoot means that you first crashes your bike on the bottom of the gorge and then climbs back up. So unbelievable incline values ​​come together, in the reality should not be exceeded the clockwise the 7%, contrary to the clockwise direction are it according to signs 11%

      The route MAY only be driven in a clockwise direction; one part is a one-way street! The slope also goes clockwise on short passages well beyond the 10%. The descent is not without for people with little experience and / or fear of heights. Nevertheless, a great round. You do not have to visit every vantage point; which are right on the street.

        The Grand Canyon of France, that's how the Gorges du Verdon is also called. And that name is completely worth it, because it is really a grand gorge: beautiful views, sharp rocks, frightening depths and beautiful nature. The Gorges du Verdon is a unique area in France, where you can enjoy the views but also the flora and fauna, such as the dozens of griffon vultures with a wingspan of two and a half meters, and in April the flowering rock medlar, to just to name a few.
