Gorges du Verdon – Provence, France

#springitinerary Spring brought the Gorges du Verdon to life with turquoise water, green cliffs, and sunny skies. I hiked along the Sentier Blanc-Martel trail, where wildflowers peeked between rocks and lizards basked in the light. The fresh spring air made the rugged hike refreshing, and the views into the canyon were breathtaking. Later, I kayaked along the calm river beneath towering limestone. #springitinerary tip: plan a full day and pack layers — the weather shifts in the canyon. For nature lovers and adventurers, Verdon in spring is France’s hidden gem — dramatic, peaceful, and unforgettable.
