The Gorges du Verdon, Europe’s downscaled version of the Grand Canyon, is situated 30 minutes North of Draguignan. This beautiful and dramatic scenery of mountains and deep valleys is a must see. In the summer, people flock to this area to hike or rock climb. They love to take a pedal-boat stroll and jump from the huge rock cliffs. The river Verdon pours its waters in the turquoise lac Ste-Croix. It is incredibly beautiful and well worth paying a visit to!

Paying attention to the number of tourists that want to spend time in Les Gorges de Verdon, buying a house or a villa in this area would become an ideal rental investment in the South of France.

Around Gorges du Verdon you will find the villages Bauduen, les Salles-sur-Verdon and Sainte Croix. The amazing village Moustier is known for its stunning hand-painted porcelain sculptures. All these villages are close to beaches located along the lake.

Nice and Toulons’ airports are approximately one hour from Draguignan. It takes about one and a half hours to get to Marseilles’ airport. The high-speed TGV train runs to and from Les Arcs daily.
