Les Mourres – The Stone “Mushrooms” of Forcalquier

Just 3 km from the Grand Hôtel de Forcalquier, the natural site of Les Mourres is one of the region’s most surprising landscapes. These strange limestone formations, shaped by millions of years of erosion, rise like stone “mushrooms” above the Provençal scrubland. The walking loop is easily accessible from Forcalquier and is a must-see for nature lovers, hikers, photographers and geology enthusiasts.
From the plateau, you’ll enjoy beautiful open views over the hills, the valleys and the Montagne de Lure — a perfect snapshot of Haute-Provence.
