Halfway between the Alps and the Mediterranean stands the Luberon mountain that make up landscapes bathed in light and color and dotted with hilltop villages. On the occasion of a camping holiday in Provence, treat yourself to a walk in this region which speaks with the southern accent of Provence.
The Luberon is a region full of Mediterranean flavors. Its mountains are indeed covered with forests of oak, cedar, beech, Scots pine, broom, box, garrigue, etc.. These landscapes are dotted with Bories, small dry stone houses.
The Luberon primarily attract the visitor by its scenery, ideal for hiking and contemplation. We appreciate particularly the Colorado Rustel dug of ocher quarries, the fountain of Vaucluse, the resurgence of an underground river, or the extraordinary panorama of Mourre Negro, the highest point of the Luberon mountains. The Luberon is also attractive with its stone villages full of charm and colors of Provence: Roussillon and its ocher facades, Gordes standing on a cliff overlooking the valleys of the Imergue and Coulon or the very popular Isle sur la Sorgue, quays or shady cobblestone streets.
The reasons for coming are many in the Luberon. There is a concentrate of Provence, full of scents and colors, markets with authentic charm and shaded places in which to watch the time escaping. So enjoy your stay on a campsite in Provence to taste this delicious region washed by the gentle sun of southern France.
