A hill village between two rivers
Aurons lies in the middle of the Massif des Costes, the line of hills between the Touloubre and the Durance, 6 km from Salon-de-Provence. Only 555 people live here, and there is just one small bar-restaurant in the centre, which also hosts local celebrations. Nature lovers come for the Goule gorge, the Farigoulet and Sonailler plateaus and the Castellas caves. The Romanesque chapel of Saint-Martin-du-Sonnailler dates from the 12th century.
