Day #12

Aix-en-Provence - Crots
Mileage: 231 km (144 mi)
Timing: 6 - 8h (incl. stops)

We head back towards Verdon Gorge, zig-zagging through the beautiful countryside of Provence. Lavander fields, rivers and canyons, quaint little villages bursting with old traditions and charm. Crots, a small town just before Embrun, is all about the scenery, sitting beneath the mountains of the Hautes Alpes and the northern edge of the Alpes de Haute Provence, overlooking the blue Serre-Ponçon Lake.
It’s one of the biggest artificial lakes in western Europe and is today a popular summer resort for all kinds of activities.Leggi altro
