There is an excellent road circuit with many hairpins and narrow steep mountain roads. First, you take the route up to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie passing plenty of viewpoints and particularly Balcony de la Mescla (look down some 250 meters to the base of the Gorge). From Moustiers-Sainte-Marie you will continue your way along the Route des Crêtes on the north side where you will see some points overlooking an 800m drop-down of the Gorges du Verdon before you’ll reach our former starting point Trigance.
