The Lake of Sainte Croix Gorges du Verdon

The Lake of Sainte Croix

Lake Sainte-Croix extends over an area of 2,200 hectares (10 kilometers long and 2 wide). The dam, built at the entrance to the gorges, near Baudinard, retains 760 million cubic meters of water and produces more than 150 million kWh per year. It thus supplies electricity to nearby towns.

Activities and leisure activities around the Lac de Sainte Croix and in the Verdon gorges

It is also a major tourist hub, and offers a privileged space for swimming, boating (electric only), pedal boats or canoeing, but also sailing.
But a day at the lake is also the perfect opportunity to discover the Plateau de Valensole and its lavender fields.
