Grand Canyon du Verdon







After a few days along the coast we moved inland to Moustiers-Ste-Marie, which is at the western end of the Verdon Canyon. We stayed in a very comfortable bed and breakfast just outside the town and did the Canyon drive from there. The first picture is of us on a short hike in the canyon. The road goes along the top of the cliff behind us and we had driven part way down and then hiked the rest of the way to the river.

The next picture is a view of part of Moustiers from above the town, and the third picture is a view of Moustiers and the surrounding countryside from the chapel high up on the mountain above the town. It is a very beautiful spot and we could have stayed there longer, but there is so much more of Provence to see!
