Situated at the Bouches-du-Rhône's northern limit, this itinerary oscillating between plains and hills overflows with a spectacular melting pot of Provençal landscapes and architecture. You will enjoy admiring the fruit & vegetable fields, vast farms, sun-drenched villages and Cistercian abbey of Durance valley, coupled with the pine woods, truffle farms and opulent, isolated bastides of the Chaîne des Côtes hills.

But the prize is more than worth it!
