Les Gorges de Provence

In a word, wow. The pool complex at Les Gorges de Provence is home to a pretty heated pool, a splashy paddling pool along with a lovely large whirlpool. Plus, a little over to one side, you’ll find a pair of waterslides – one twisty, the other speedy.

Forget about cooking (and washing up) - instead, you can enjoy a good meal at your parc’s restaurant or a delicious pizza on your decking, thanks to the takeaway service that the parc also offers. And to rediscover the pleasure of simple things, sit on the terrace at the bar to enjoy the wonderful view. That's all it takes to indulge in a moment of pure relaxation at this spectacularly located parc.

We’ve gathered together everything you need to know about your parc in one handy place. From what to know before you arrive, to those all -important guidelines to make your stay on parc as smooth as possible. Take a minute to get up to speed on your new summer home.

So much to enjoy here -from canoeing and kayaking, yoga and aqua aerobics to a mini farm for the kids, and pedaloes to take out on the lake.

Les Gorges de Provence sits in an area of outstanding beauty high up in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. It’s a beautiful part of France, filled with fragrant lavender fields and rolling vineyards.

All around the parc there are gorgeous woodlands you can explore on foot, or by bike. But the star of the show has to be the breathtaking Gorges du Verdon, where you can hike, cycle and take part in watersports such as paddle boarding and kayaking. You’re also close to Lac d’Esparron – cast in a line or take a nature-filled walk around its edge.
