It springs from the Col llos in the massif of the Trois Evêchés. It flows into the Durance at Vinon-sur-Verdon. Between Castellane and the bridge of Le Galetas, the river runs through a deep gorge, the Gorges du Verdon. The Gorges du Verdon is the largest canyon in Europe and the second largest in the world and is also called the Grand Canyon du Verdon, after the Grand Canyon in the United States. This nature park is a very popular area for nature lovers. Many mountaineers also come to this gorge to test themselves on some of the steep walls of the gorge.

The Lac de St-Croix is  the second largest reservoir in France, located on the border of the departments of Alpes-de-Haute-Provence and Var. It can also be seen from the plane, if it is not cloudy. The lake has existed since 1973. The village of Les Salles-sur-Verdon used to stand where the lake is now. Traces of it can still be seen, such as asphalt roads that disappear into the lake. The old village was almost completely bulldozed and rebuilt 400 meters away. At Les Salles-sur-Verdon there is also an island that is within swimming distance. In the spring and autumn the water is so low that you can walk to it. The lake is also aimed at tourists.
