The 'Véloroute du Calavon' (Calavon Greenway) is a designated cycle path, 37 km long, between Coustellet, in the west, to "la Paraire" in the town of Saint Martin de Castillon in the east.
In a few years, this itinerary will end up crossing the entire Calavon river valley, starting in Cavaillon and joining Vaucluse to Bouches-du-Rhône and Alpes de Haute Provence departments.
This circuit is included in 'Eurovéloroure no. 8, the Mediterranean by bike' which will eventually join Greece (Athens) to Spain (Tarifa).
