Spectacular views. 2,500 feet above sea level. Nice old castle to wander around, perfume factory, shops, restaurants and lots of hang gliders flying
The best place to eat in Gourdon is at the end of the village where the view is. The food is simple and in expensive but service can be a bit slow so expect a bit of a wait as it gets busy. The other restaurant (Le Nid d'Aigle) is probably the most spectacular one, with three menu prices going from Gastronomic to simple, however it is quite expensive, particularly for the quality of food you get, so might be worth giving this a miss.

If you want some stunning scenery then why not do the walk from Pont Du Loup to Gourdon. It is a clearly marked walk and should take an hour and a half.
The village is perched on top of this mountain which is a relatively easy walk. There are wonderful views of the Cote D'Azur and lots of cafes and restaurants to chose once there. Walking shoes are advisable.
Most of the local paragliders start on the hills behind Gourdon and fly around the village of Gourdon. Its a spectacular sight and well worth the walk up.
