Title: buoux guide - where do i get one?
Post by: benpritch on December 26, 2010, 03:06:19 pm

anybody know where i can pick up a guide to buoux? i'm there now and my memory isn't good enough to remember where everything is or what grades etc.

i'm after the one with the red writing and the pic of no mans land on the front, lots of lovely blue sky, just like it is now.

thanks in advance

we picked one up from the municipal camp site office in Apt, if that's any help to you? right in the centre past that school over the river

I picked one up from the campiste below Bonnieux (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=camping+Bonnieux,+France&sll=43.822131,5.308306&sspn=0.002512,0.004823&ie=UTF8&hq=camping&hnear=Bonnieux,+Vaucluse,+Provence-Alpes-C%C3%B4te+d%27Azur,+France&ll=43.837499,5.29335&spn=0.077264,0.154324&t=h&z=13) earlier this year.

The contact details Google returns are...

Chemin de Groupatière

04 90 31 04 03

..which might save a journey if their closed.
