The Alpes-de-Haute-Provence has 18 campsites offering unique accommodation, between the Verdon gorges and Provence's lavender fields. The average rating reaches 4.4/5, with weekly prices ranging from €250 to €780.
Provence Vallée, in Manosque, leads with 4.9/5. La Ribière, in Annot, offers coco-sweet (4.7/5, 360 reviews), while La Beaume, in Esparron-de-Verdon, by the lake, remains the busiest campsite in the department with 776 reviews.
Domaine des Marmottes, in Val d'Oronaye, in the upper Ubaye valley, and Les Routes de Provence, in Forcalquier, which offers bivouac, complete the top ranking with 4.5/5. Le Bourg, in Digne-les-Bains, the department's prefecture, and Huttopia Lac de Serre-Ponçon, in Saint-Vincent-les-Forts, with gypsy caravans, are among the busiest.
Esparron-de-Verdon alone brings together two addresses in the selection, a natural anchor point for the Verdon gorges. Bivouac, coco-sweet and gypsy caravan make up most of the department's unique accommodation offer.
Booking a unique stay in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence requires planning ahead for summer, when campsites around the Verdon and the large lakes fill up. Spring remains a good time to discover the lavender routes before the July bloom.
Les gorges du Verdon, entre Esparron-de-Verdon et Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, comptent parmi les plus grands canyons d’Europe, avec baignade dans les lacs de Sainte-Croix et d’Esparron. Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, l’un des plus beaux villages de France, complète l’étape avec sa faïence traditionnelle.
Plus au nord, Forcalquier et le plateau de Valensole ouvrent sur les routes de la lavande, un paysage emblématique de la Haute-Provence en juillet.
