You can reach the heights of the Gorges du Verdon by passing through Castellane (723 m)<\/strong> a town downstream from the source, then taking the direction of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie,<\/strong> classed amongst the most beautiful villages in France dating back from the XVII century. From the Right bank we can take the route des Cr\u00eates<\/strong> (a loop of 24 km from La Palud-sur-Verdon) punctuated by staggering, vertiginous viewpoints, including the aptly named Point Sublime,<\/strong> literally a sight to behold. The plateau of Valensole<\/strong> is situated at around 20 km from Moustiers-Sainte-Marie.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Must do :<\/u><\/em> The way for cross which overlooks Moustiers to the chapel Notre-Dame de Beauvoir (20 mn of ascent). \u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n
