Canyoning, mountain biking and hiking are the most popular activities, so we have reserved a sub-category for them. However, we have also taken care to place a sub-category “various” which completes the wide range proposed in the Verdon. Just to show you that we never get bored here!

Thus, we have dedicated a sub-category to the villages of the Verdon as well as to its fabulous lakes. A sub-category “miscellaneous articles” gathers to finish many surprises.
