What is there to do or see in Valensole?

The Valensole plateau is the largest producer of lavender in France. The flowers bloom between mid-June and mid-July, with harvesting beginning in mid-July.

The lavender fields are the main attraction. The colors are very vivid, with the blue of the flowers contrasting with the ochre of the earth. The sensory experience is unique with this typical Provençal fragrance.

Two large lavender growers on the plateau offer tours: Lavandes Angelvin and Lavande Terraroma Jaubert. Lavandes Angelvin offers a free tour of the distillery.

The medieval village was built on a hill and its streets wind their way up to the church of Saint-Blaise. This 11th-century church combines Provençal Romanesque style with a Gothic choir.

If you enjoy swimming, you'll love discovering the turquoise waters of Lake Esparron-de-Verdon. Water activities include sailing, pedal boating, canoeing, kayaking, and electric boat rides.
