Tourist guide

A region that is worth taking one’s time to discover

Welcome to Provence, a region steeped in tradition, full of flavour and fragrance! Let yourself be seduced by this sunkissed land, where the song of grasshoppers sets the tempo of villages perched up high among fields of lavender and olive trees. From the Alpilles to the Lubéron, you will be charmed by its colourful French markets, its vineyards and its Azure skies… These are the exceptional landscapes that Cézanne painted to his heart’s content!

From our campsite, we recommend the following excursions:

• Canoeing at L'Isle sur la Sorgue
• Accrobranche at Charleval

You can also discover the surrounding area with the independent service provider ‘Bees’ in the village of Cadenet, with its electrically-assisted bicycles.

70 km from our campsite-village, discover Wave Island, a huge water park: wild river, dizzying slides, artificial surf wave, water tower...

You can also visit SPIROU, an amusement park set in the combined worlds of Spirou, Lucky Luke, Marsupilami and Gaston Lagaffe!

If you're on holiday in the south of France, now is the perfect time to discover local produce!

• Mallemort: lively night-time craft market, Tuesdays in July and August
• Lourmarin: Producers' night market, Tuesdays (5.30pm-8.30pm) from April to October
