Top 5 picnic spots

When the weather is nice, what better way than to enjoy a good meal in the open air. Today we are sharing with you the best places to have a picnic with friends, family or as a couple!

LAKE MONTEUX

A few minutes by car from downtown Monteux, enjoy a stroll around Lake Monteux Provence to sit at the foot of a tree in a magnificent and soothing setting and thus enjoy lunch.

Paid parking will allow you to get closer to the site and you will even find the Dune snack bar if you have not prepared your snack

THE HILL OF PUY BRICON IN PERNES-LES-FONTAINES

In the middle of nature, sheltered from the noise pollution of the city, the Puy Bricon hill is the ideal place to recharge your batteries and enjoy a moment of calm to enjoy your meal.

As you hike, you will find several picnic tables along the route that are in the shade most of the time. The departure is from the Paul de Vivie sports complex but free parking is available just at the entrance of the forest.

THE ROMANESQUE BRIDGE AT BEDARRIDES

While exploring downtown Bédarrides, you will have the chance to discover in particular the Roman Bridge, a superb 17th century building that you can contemplate while enjoying a meal on the banks of Ouvèze on the picnic benches available.

To park, nothing could be easier, the Ouvèze car park is located a stone's throw from the premises!

THE MONTE-CARLO GARDEN IN ALTHEN-DES-PALUDS

Just behind the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption is the Monte-Carlo Garden, a magnificent green space in a very quiet area that is sure to enchant you!

After a delicious picnic, the atmosphere and the influence of the Provençal lifestyle invite us to rest and nap, and believe us this place is conducive to this practice!

THE PARK GENTILLY IN SORGUES

A green space in the heart of the city of Sorgues, the Gentilly Park is a magical place inviting to stroll and relax but you can also take advantage of it to spend a friendly moment around the picnic tables available or to sit at the foot of a tree.

Picnicking is often an opportunity to discover local products, specialties to take away and to leave with a basket full of good things. Good news is the concept created by Sarah, from the online delicatessen store La Sariette, which offers boxes of local products such as olive oil, cookies, honey, honey, tapenades or even confectionery! Its objective is to support the work of local producers while allowing you to enjoy yourself.

For you, we had the chance to discover some products such as tapenades and spreads, a pure delight!
