The tourist service at Saint-Léger-du-Ventoux :

From the Toulourenc Valley, you will climb more than 600 metres uphill (positive altitude change) on the Mont Ventoux massif. At first, this will be on a path and it will then become a wide track giving you the opportunity to admire an unusual panorama of this remote valley.

At the Col du Comte (alt. 996m), you will twist and turn down a long and beautiful descent on a challenging trail, until you reach the foot of the Giant of Provence. Between Beaumont and Malaucène, you will wend your way through a landscape of orchards. A refreshing stop at the source of the river Groseau shortly before Malaucène will be well deserved.
