Verdon Gorge to Lake Sainte-Croix

Highlight • Lake

The Gorges de Verdun are a very popular place of natural beauty in France. You don't need to go in the water to enjoy this pearl. Nearby roads and bridges provide stunning views of the gorge below.

Along the Lac du Sainte-Croix there are some steep and long uphill sections. Sufficient fitness is therefore a prerequisite. Otherwise, the roads are easy to drive on, which can also be seen from the many cyclists (racing bikes, gravel bikes, full bikes).

Moustiers Sainte-Marie

Highlight • Settlement

Moustiers-Sainte-Marie is a superb cliff-side village, in the heart of the Verdon regional natural park. It is really very pleasant to stroll through its pretty pedestrian streets! I advise you to put your bike down for a while and go up to La Chapelle Notre-Dame de Beauvoir, built on the rock on the heights of the village. You will find in Moustiers something to eat and a public fountain.

September 20, 2024,🇫🇷 Gorges du Verdon"24/90"🌤️🚴

The Gorges du Verdon is considered the most beautiful canyon in Europe! The rock walls of the gorge can be up to 700 m high. We first enjoyed the view of the canyon and Lake Sainte-Croix from high up. Then we drove down to the Pont de Galetas bridge and to the shore of the lake. There were various boat …

Luckily, the first day wasn't just wasted on getting to the Verdon Regional Nature Park in the Alps of High Provence province. Instead of 10, it was 14 hours again, which is actually always due to Switzerland. But we were still able to take a nice tour from our trailer park to Moustiers de Sainte Marie. This beautiful mountain village, …

Today around midday, after we had waited out the short morning shower, we walked the few kilometers along Lac St. Croix, past the mouth of the Verdon and then up to the beautiful mountain town of Moustier St. Marie with its star hanging between the rocks above the town.
