Vinon-sur-Verdon walks
The north-facing slope of Vinon-sur-Verdon
A walk on the shaded north-facing slope overlooking Vinon, making it a good choice for a summer’s day. The route is not signposted, so it is best to have a GPS or the Visorando app.
The banks of the Verdon at Vinon-sur-Verdon
The walk takes you close to the lower Verdon, which has been transformed from a torrent into a river, and then to the promontory of the old Vinon castle, of which only the commanding view and a few stones remain.
Trou du Loup and Ravin de Bernadine, with return via La Bosse
An easy loop starting from Corbières, with the Torrent de Corbières gorges and the Trou du Loup. The start of the walk offers a glimpse of the gorge on a gently ascending path, with very cool spots and a wide variety of flora. The Ravin de Bernadine has the same atmosphere but with a torrent that is often dry. The climb to La Bosse and the descent on the way back take you through scrubland typical of the Luberon. A pleasant way to discover the hills and scrubland of the Luberon.
