To discover in
Provence
A few
suggestions...
Ventabren,
our medieval village: a jogging in the light of the early
morning...
the visit of the old village... attractive strolls through a
typically Mediterranean
vegetation (thyme, rosemary, cistus, oak kermès,...)
The
seaside: Cassis and the visit of the Calanques by
foot
or by boat, the 'Côte bleue' and its vast sandy beaches,
Marseille and its isles, the coast to Saint-Tropez...
Aix
en Provence, Arles, Saint-Remy, Avignon,
Ile-sur-la-Sorgue,... :
Cities of art and culture,
little towns in
the very Provençal atmosphere where it makes good to amble and
to suspend the time...
The
old villages with stony houses, often perched in the fabulous
landscapes of Alpilles et Luberon
:
les Baux de Provence,
Gordes, Roussillon, Lourmarin...
Other
atmosphere: the Camargue, and its vast natural landscapes
to discover by foot, biking or by horse,
without forgetting
Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer and its huge beaches...
At the soil side, the pleasure to taste and to select wine
and olive oil directly at the producer,
but also the
soaps, the linen and furnishing fabric
and the
potteries on markets...
The
road of lavenders among the bright landscapes of the
Alpes de Haute-Provence
(bloom from mid-June
to mid-July).
For
the lovers of nature and hikes, itinaries in the mountain
Saint-Victoire and in the Calanques Creeks
(especially on
spring and fall seasons, from April till June and from September
till November).
Many
Sports
activities, under the sun of Provence, like golf, kayak of
sea or river, diving,
bike or horse
riding...
