To make the most of the panoramic views of the Gorges, choose the North (Righ bank and Route des Crêtes), then South (Left Bank) direction: this way you will be always on the river side aand the views.
Beware, if the passenger suffers from vertigo, prefer the opposite direction - the passenger will be on the cliff or forest side.
A visit to the Verdon Gorge is accessible to practically all types of vehicle. However, the road is narrow and twisty. Vehicles must not exceed 4.30 m in height (3.60 m on the sides of the Route des Crêtes tunnels) and 12 m in length. Drive well to the right and signal your presence (horn) in tight, blind bends.
The Right Bank: By the D952 and D23 with some landmarks: La Palud-sur-Verdon, 14 view points on the Route des Crêtes, the Point Sublime and the Soleils bridge.
The Left Bank or Corniche Sublime: By D71 with some landmarks: the Balcons de la Mescla, the Artuby bridge, the Fayet tunnels, the Cavaliers cliffs, the Vaumale cirque and the col d'Illoire.
