Provence's relaxed Mediterranean charm attracts many visitors to its coast, yet the area also has much to offer the walker. The countryside provides both unexpected solitude and a diversity of landscapes - one day a remote plateau, the next a leafy gorge. The walking is magical and full of discovery - an ancient ruin, a tumbledown village, monuments, shrines and old canals. This is a landscape with a past, and when you walk you stumble on history. Interesting diversions beckon, and the air is warm and fragrent with herbs.
This guide contains 42 short and medium-length walks in the areas of Alpes Maritimes, Var, Vaucluse and northern Provence.
Also included :
- Detailed maps accompanying each walk
- History of the Provençal regions
- Flora & Fauna, Provençal Writers and Regional Dishes
- Practical information regarding accommodation, when to go and how to get there.
