Description

According to toponymists, these short gorges, narrow and spectacular (of 2.5km long 140m wide and 100m deep) would be the reason for naming the Calavon river which flows from Banon, on the foothills of Mount Lure toreach the Durance in Cavaillon. "Cal" means stone and the Celtic word "Avon" means river.
