The dam of Lake Zola can be reached via beautiful trails. It was built between 1847 and 1854 and is one of the first arch dams in the world; according to Wikipedia, it may even be the very first. The lake served to supply Aix-en-Provence with drinking water, which was piped there via an aqueduct. A beautiful destination directly from Aix, or from Le Tholonet.

This square features three key features: the town hall, its fountain, and the grain market. Situated since the 14th century at the foot of the Clock Tower, the town hall was rebuilt in two phases between 1655 and 1678. The overall design, inspired by Italian palaces, is the work of Pavillon, assisted by the sculptors Rambot and Fossé. Two series of paintings are located in the Salle des Etats de Provence, on the first floor: on the one hand, portraits of the counts of Provence and the kings of France, and on the other, major historical works. Time and the Revolution have stripped the façade of its rich ornamentation. The fountain, built in 1755, topped by a Roman column, is by Chastel. The monumental decor surrounding it gives it a wealth of character. Built in 1754, the Halle aux Grains is characterized by a central avant-corps, topped by a triangular pediment protecting a magnificent Baroque ensemble sculpted by Chastel: these are allegories of the Rhône and the Durance, in the form of a man and a woman depicted surrounded by all the agricultural riches derived from the benefits of water. The goddess's foot emerging from the pediment symbolizes the moments when the Durance bursts its banks... a subtle metaphor. (https://www.aixenprovence.fr/Place-de-l-hotel-de-ville)

Very worthwhile excursion from Aix, the altitude is worth it!

superb hike, to do in the morning. be well-shod because there are many rocks to cross. Take plenty of water. superb priory below the cross.

forcioli trail (green and black markings) -> climbing path uphill, very steep downhill

Nice place for a picnic (when it's not too crowded!)

It seems that part of the Priory is private
