In the heart of wild and luminous nature, Haute-Provence reveals some of Europe's most spectacular landscapes. Between sculpted mountains, lavender-scented plateaus, hilltop villages, and winding roads lined with vertiginous gorges, every day on a bike is an adventure in itself. From Castellane to the narrow streets of Grasse, you'll ride along breathtakingly beautiful scenic roads, explore the Verdon Gorge—Europe's largest canyon—and pass through typical villages such as Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, ranked among the most beautiful in France.
The free days allow you to take the time to explore at your own pace, whether it's pushing the boundaries of discovery on magnificent bike loops or enjoying a well-deserved break in a sidewalk café facing the Alpine mountains. Alpine roads, wild ridges, secret valleys, and breathtaking panoramas... this trip is a hymn to freedom and the joy of cycling. A demanding but deeply inspiring itinerary, perfect for lovers of wide open spaces and sporting challenges.
