The tour of the Sainte-Croix lake takes you on a journey through time and water. It invites you to feel the spirit of the place as you meet 6 villages whose destiny was turned upside down by the building of a dam in the 1970s.
-
The final stage begins with a descent to the Galetas site, which marks the junction between the lake and the Gorges. Once past the Vigie viewpoint, you return to Moustiers up the Maïre valley. The hike can be done in both directions.
