Description:

Explore the purple hills around the Valensole Plateau, covered with flowers as far as the eye can see, with the pleasant scent hanging everywhere in the wind. Enjoy leisure time among the fields and explore a traditional distillery to observe the process of making lavender soaps and oils.

With an area of more than 300 square miles (800 sq km), the Valensole Plateau is covered with lavender, the famous Provençal flower, along with hosts of charming villages. Drive through vast fields of delicate purple and bright blue flowers and admire the picturesque view of the countryside.

Enjoy some photo stops and leisure time with a stroll along hidden footpaths through the seas of lavender and sunflowers. Take a deep breath to experience the true scent and color of Provence before you head to a lavender distillery shop located among the fields.

Look beyond the common Lavandin variety to explore all 3 different types of lavender that thrive in the area. See distillation materials, learn the essentials of the process of making lavender oils, and take a look at the final products—from essential oils and eau de toilette to soaps and dried flowers.
