THOLONET AND MONT SAINT-VICTOIRE


Last weekend we took a bus to the outskirts of Aix toward a small ville named Tholonet where we could access the hills around Mont Saint Victoire. It was a lovely walk with really great views. We saw skydivers drifting down near the mountain and a dam (Barrage Zola) designed by Francois Zola (Emile Zola's father). 


This is Mont Saint-Victoire in Aix-en-Provence.


Made famous by Paul Cezanne.

We meant to go on a short hike, but ended up walking for at least four hours. 

The girls were super troopers as always.
