Pilot comments
Very sweet site: you can stay on the crest in local thermal or go on the front, on flat land XC. If you want adventure, go in your back, Saint André direction ;-) but coming back by road is a little bit difficult! And your family can have good time on the Sainte Croix lake (beach) or in Verdon valley (climbing, rafting, walking...)
