Located in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, Valensole is a destination far from the south of France, renowned for its lavender fields. This Provençal village attracts each year thousands of visitors in search of typical landscapes, preserved nature and authenticity.

The lavender fields of the Valensole plateau
The Valensole plateau is one of the best places to observe lavender. Between the end of June and mid-July, the fields are very flowery and violated. The rows of lavender stretch as far as the eye can see, creating a beautiful contrast with the blue sky and the surrounding cultures. This period is ideal for photography and nature walks.
Valensole's warm atmosphere
In addition to the fields, the village of Valensole seduces with its warm atmosphere. Its narrow streets, stone houses and fountains offer a typical Provençal setting. Visitors can also discover craft shops and local producers offering lavender products, such as essential oils, honey or soaps
