groupThis 9-day trekking tour crosses the wonderful lavender fields in the south of France from Mount Ventoux, the most famous cyclist mountain of Europe, to Eourres, a small picturesque village at the edge of the Alps and Provence.  Passing through small villages we will discover nature, the typical regional architecture, historical buildings and monuments and of course the amazing views and smells of the sunny hills covered in lavender.  Our overnight stays will be in beautiful guest houses and farms.  Evening meals will be delightful French cuisine.  Donkeys will carry our luggage so that we can hike comfortably in the summer heat.  Good physical condition is required.
