Valensole PlateauPhoto: Maylis de Lorgeril, Destination du Pays de Manosque
A pleasant route, amid the scents of lavender, almond trees and olive trees, to reach the chapel of the Trinity.
"In the "remarkable taste site" area, like the people of Valensole after buying good products, I like to picnic at the Trinity by walking through the small wild valleys, amid fields of flowering lavender in summer, and almond trees at the end of winter.
How wonderful it is to be intoxicated by the scents and colors of Haute Provence before resting in the shade of the great plane trees."
Stefano Blanc hiking technician PNR Verdon.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
