September is the most popular time to visit La Duranne, as the summer crowds begin to dwindle and the region basks in pleasant weather. This month marks the onset of the peak season, which lasts until November, attracting travellers eager to experience the charming villages, vineyards, and stunning landscapes of Provence. With temperatures averaging around 25°C, it's an ideal time for outdoor activities like hiking through the picturesque hills or leisurely exploring local markets.
During September, you'll find that the vineyards are alive with harvest activities, offering great experiences such as wine tasting tours and vineyard visits. The mild climate and beautiful scenery create the superb backdrop for enjoying the slower pace of life in this enchanting part of France.
For those looking for a more affordable option, consider visiting in December. While temperatures drop to around 10°C, this time of year offers its own unique charm, with festive decorations and a quieter atmosphere. It's a wonderful opportunity to explore the local culture and enjoy cosy meals in delightful bistros without the hustle and bustle of the busier months.
