A wonderful trip exploring the Verdon Gorge. The gîte's location was magnificent, in a charming little village perched high above, with incredible views. The activities were fantastic, conveniently located near the gîte, and well-organized.

The canyoning was absolutely fantastic, the operator was very professional. He explained and guided the entire route. He's located in Lapalud de Verdon. The electric bikes reserved for the Route des Crêtes (Crest Road) were perfect. The route is challenging and magnificent. The gîte (rural guesthouse) in Rougon was "lost" in the middle of nowhere… The services, the welcome, and the meals were all of good quality. Everything was very clean.
