Once you reach these rocky headlands - as a well-deserved reward - you will be able to see some magnificent panoramas of the Ventoux and various agricultural landscapes: vineyards, cherry trees on the Venasque hills, almond trees etc.

To be noted

  • To make the most of the views and the charm of the villages you cross, opt for electric bikes.

  • Avoid hot days.

If you notice a problem on one of the Provence cycling routes report it with the Suricate app!: sentinelles.sportsdenature.fr
