GR®6
From Gironde to Alpes-de-Haute-Provence
|
 |
The GR®6 traverses France from West to East, from Gironde to Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. Leaving Gironde, the path crosses the regions of Périgord and Quercy, offering hikers an immersion in the beauty of French nature and history. Hikers can discover preserved medieval villages such as Rocamadour and Sarlat. The GR®6 reaches the Massif Central, a mountain range, before descending towards the Rhône Valley. From Gallo-Roman ruins to Romanesque churches, each stop tells a part of France's history. The Castel of Grignan, for example, in the Drôme Provençale, evokes the splendor of past centuries. In Provence, the fields of lavender, olive groves, and garrigues provide a colorful spectacle throughout the year. Aromatic plants like thyme and rosemary scent the warm air, adding a Mediterranean touch to the journey.
