Verdon, Mountain river in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France
The Verdon River flows through limestone formations for 166 kilometers, forming deep gorges with depths reaching 700 meters in southeastern France.
The first printed documentation of the Verdon River appeared between 1782 and 1804, with international recognition following in the early twentieth century.
The river plays a central role in regional outdoor sports, with over 1500 established climbing routes along its limestone walls.
Visitors can access the river through multiple entry points along Route D952, which follows the watercourse through various towns and recreational areas.
The river's name originates from its distinct green-colored water, caused by minerals and glacial deposits present in the waterway.
