7 Cool Hikes #7: Ultimate Detox Trek in Provence

The Ultimate Detox Retreat in Provence

As seasoned hiking enthusiasts with years exploring Europe's trails, we've curated this transformative experience in Bras-d'Asse, Provence. Combine Dr. Buchinger's proven fasting method—featuring fresh fruit juices and homemade vegetable broths—with invigorating daily hikes.

Why it excels: Fasting rests your body while hikes in pristine sites like the Trevans Gorges (a biodiversity reserve), near the quieter stretches of Verdon Gorges, and the foothills of Montagne de Beyne rejuvenate your spirit. Evenings unwind with games, a wooden swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, or pétanque court in serene surroundings.

Alternative option: "Hiking and Well-Being in an Eco-Hotel" with Chamina Voyages—an easy trek in Madeira, Portugal, with fitness add-ons. Details at www.chamina-voyages.com.
