the star guides you to the chapel

Moustiers became famous because of the gilded star that hangs above the Rioul gorge. The star hangs directly above the little church “Notre Dame de Beauvoir”. A sturdy chain is suspended between the two enormous, steep rocks on either side of the gorge, with the star in the middle of the chain. It is still unknown who hung the golden star there and for what reason. There are two legends that are told in Moustiers. The first is the story of Knight Blacas who was captured by the Arabs during one of the crusades to the Holy Land. He vowed that if he saw his village of Moustiers again, he would build a monument to the Virgin Mary. The second legend is that two lovers from enemy families committed suicide together because of their love and that this star was hung in memory of this.

very pretty waterfall

The tip about the hiking poles was very helpful, because the last 150 meters to the waterfall are tough for inexperienced hikers. But the view is very beautiful. We were able to watch a group abseiling down the waterfall
