The go-to Western Provence walking guide for over 30 years.
Strap on your boots and discover Western Provence on foot with the Sunflower Languedoc-Roussillon and Western Provence travel guide. And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours.
The Sunflower Western Provence guide is indispensable for hiking in Western Provence or seeing Western Provence by car. We cover an area beginning at Aix-en-Provence, heading west via the Luberon and Mont Ventoux to the great Roman cities and the Pont du Gard. We travel north to the Ardeche, the Tarn and the Cirque de Navacelles and south through Herault to Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi, crossing the Corbieres and the Land of the Cathars to the foot of Canigou, holy mountain of the Pyrenees. These are not tough GR routes, but mostly circular treks suitable for moderately fit people.
Inside the Sunflower Western Provence guide book you'll find:
76 long and short walks for all ages and abilities - each walk is graded so you can easily match your ability to the level of walk
Topographical walking maps - give you a clear sense of the surrounding terrain
Free downloadable gps tracks - for the techies

12 car tours and fold-out touring map - for easy reference on your tour

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Since 1983 people out walking in sunny climes have been relying on our 'little blue books' to follow the trails - and to make friends with other walkers. Sunflower started by exploring the Atlantic Islands, but has branched out: we still love islands - from the Azores to Zakynthos - but we cover many mainland destinations too, like land-locked Switzerland and the coastal Basque Country. All our guides have the familiar mix of car tours, walks and picnics. More recently, we introduced restaurants and recipes in our 'Walk & Eat' series, which explores around cities from Stockholm to Avignon.
