While the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence leave a lasting impression with the verdant charm of the Forcalquier region, the relief of the Verdon, or the peaks of the Ubaye valley around Barcelonnette, it is the entire Proven\u00e7al territory that comes alive throughout the months. From the Alpilles to the Luberon, from the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur to the city of Popes, the region offers a uniquely rich agenda. To make the most of these festivities, organizing your stay according to the seasonal calendar is ideal for experiencing authentic moments with family or friends.
