Walking tour of the Sainte-Croix lake: Stage 4 - Bauduen - Les Salles-sur-Verdon

The tour of the Sainte-Croix lake takes you on a journey through time and water. It invites you to feel the spirit of the place as you meet 6 villages whose destiny was turned upside down by the building of a dam in the 1970s.

This stage begins with a climb up the Véris hill, before descending along a path through lapiaz with a view of the island of Coste Belle before joining the Garuby track and following the shores of the lake to the village of Les Salles-sur-Verdon. Here you can stop for a bite to eat, refuel and relax on the beaches of Les Salles, or continue after a short climb to Aiguines, which marks the entrance to the left bank of the Grand Canyon. The hike can be done in both directions.
