The Valley of Les Baux and its Castles

Description

The Alpilles National Park, in the Bouches du Rhône region of Provence, like the whole of Provence, has known different periods of occupation by man.

 

We propose that you discover the Alpilles through the medieval heritage of the Vallée des Baux while at the same time enjoying the present with a wine-tasting in a vineyard, exceptional due to its location and the quality of its wines.
