Holiday itinerary

Eight days of limestone and turquoise: Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, the Route des Cretes, Lac de Sainte-Croix, Castellane, the lavender plateau of Valensole. Tesla in Aix and Manosque; the rim road is slow and the hairpins eat range.

Season: Rim road open most of the year; ice in January. Lavender late June-July. Kayaks on Sainte-Croix May-September. Summer heat on the plateau.
