Provence Hiking Vacation: Walking in the South of France
South of Avignon, Provence
The South of France, where the
farmers grow olive trees, grape
vines and sunflowers.  St
Martin de Crau offers hiking on
the back roads
The town of Lacoste is an interesting hike.  
Narrow cobbled streets rimmed by beds of
hollyhock and lavender  lead past textured
doorways, lace curtained windows, and
through tiny portals, twisting down the hill to
networks of  trails beneath the town.  In the
valleys lavender fields, cherry orchards, and
olive groves offer paths and trails for the
hike to the next village, perhaps Bonnieux.

Short term and long term vacation rentals  
in towns like Gordes and Goult make this
part of Provence ideal for hiking. biking, and
the culinary vacation.  

The fruit and vegetable markets in the
villages will provide a healthy snack of
crushed olive tapinades spiced with basil
and they will supply the fresh  fruit, goat
cheese, and a bottle of wine for the  picnic
on the way to the next village.
