Place to see: Gorges du Verdon - Verdon's Canyon, Aix-en-Provence, France

Verdon Canyon

Verdon Canyon

The Verdon Canyon (South France), from a village in the mountains... They've reintegrated vultures (Gyps fulvus) on this site.

About this place:

The Verdon Canyon is, I think, the bigger canyon in Europe ! Cliffs of more than 300m, great place to trek, climb, base jump or kayaking and rafting...

There's also a big artificial lake at the canyon's end, where one can relax, swim and just chill out !

    Back when I was 8 years old, we went to live in the Gorges du Verdon (South France). I grew up there, a wonderful and wild place where a young boy can explore for years !

    It's there that I started to climb, a long love story... These big cliffs are up to 300m high, and it's just amazing to be in the middle of it !
