France - Provence-Alps-Côte d’Azur

Aiguines

When traveling the Gorges du Verdon there are many spectacular and dramatic vantage points from which to watch the river cut its path. The road periodically veers away from the edge of the Verdon River Canyon and rolls past beautiful green meadows dotted by a few mountain cabins and hamlets. In spring, wildflowers bloom everywhere. As the ruggedness and fierceness of the canyon wanes, the road gradually returns to the valley, opening up to vistas of the brilliant blue waters of Lac de Sainte Croix where you see Aiguines, a rosy-hued village silhouetted against the backdrop of the lake. The numerous docks hint at what a paradise the lake is for sportsmen in summer months.
