Responsible tourism
In Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, responsible tourism is at the heart of our priorities. Concerned about preserving our exceptional landscapes, our unique heritage and the well-being of the inhabitants, we encourage a respectful discovery of the territory. Through simple gestures, informed choices and support for local actors, everyone can contribute to the protection of our environment while living an authentic experience. Together, let’s make sure that the beauty of the Verdon is passed on to future generations.
I use my water bottle
A water bottle is a good start to reducing waste. In addition, in Moustiers all the fountains are drinkable, it’s convenient to fill your water bottle quickly
Stop picking
When I go for a walk, I don’t pick plants, they belong in the ground and can grow in their natural environment?

I erase my tracks!
On a picnic, I take ALL my rubbish with me! For example, a banana peel pollutes because it takes 8 to 10 months to decompose. In the Verdon, we don’t have the right insects to make it disappear quickly.
I stay on the trail
When hiking, I stay on the marked trails so as not to damage nature, not to crush young plants and not to disturb animals!
I choose local!
For my meals as well as for my souvenirs, I favor local producers and artisans.
I keep my dog on a leash
In the wild, I keep my dog on a leash to respect the tranquility of the wildlife and promote their reproduction.
I reduce my energy consumption
On vacation I also think about turning off the lights, not increasing the heating unnecessarily (does not exceed 21°C indoors) and only turning on the air conditioning if the temperature exceeds 26 degrees indoors.
I sort my waste!
On holiday, as at home, I sort my waste! Find sorting instructions in the Tourist Office and sorting places on the village map.
