A pleasant circular starting from Lagarde-Paréol through the Massif d'Uchaux, among forests and vineyards.

Before reaching the plateau overlooking the Rhône valley, offering superb views to the south and north, this route takes you through old sand quarry galleries and part of a surprising drystone shelter trail. At the western end of the plateau stands the fortress of Mornas, which you can see from above but which can be reached by taking a short detour.The only difficulty of this route is its length, as it mainly follows wide forest tracks lined with majestic pine trees.

The winegrowers of Cairanne are proud to offer you this discovery trail through the vineyards. Ideal for an outing with family or friends, this circular will guide you to the heights of the Col du Débat.

You will then descend through the vineyards towards the Old Village before returning to the Maison du Cairanne.

Set off to explore the Cairanne vineyards with their plots of vines nestled in the woods! Created by the winegrowers of Cairanne, this semi-shaded trail will take you to new heights. The walk begins in the direction of the Col du Débat. You will then take the Route du Feu towards the heights of Montagne de Ventabren. From there, you will enjoy magnificent views of the Dentelles de Montmirail and Mont Ventoux. You will descend through the vineyards to reach the Old Village and return to the Maison du Cairanne.

This circular trail presents no particular difficulties and allows you to explore the old village of Cairanne. The hilltop village is a natural viewpoint over the Dentelles de Montmirail and Mont Ventoux to the east and the Aygues and Rhône valleys to the west. Surrounded by the renowned Côtes du Rhône vineyards, it is also famous for its AOC "Cairanne" wine. From vineyards to woodland, from footpaths to forest tracks, this hike takes you to the Croix du Serre de la Garde, where a 360° panorama awaits you.

The old quarries are not open to visitors for safety reasons: in this area, do not stray from the paths as there are large holes in the ground. The Massif d'Uchaux offers spectacular views, particularly of Mont Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail.

Take the time to discover Vacqueyras in a different way! The winegrowers and merchants of Vacqueyras invite you to explore their beautiful landscapes between vineyards and heath. This footpath will guide you through vineyards and rural paths to the Garrigues plateau and back to the starting point in the centre of the village of Vacqueyras.

This circular walk starts from Vacqueyras and ascends to the Dentelles Sarrasines through fields of vines to Col, d'Alsau. From here a steep path leads up to the foot of the crags and follows the climber's path to the gap next to Rocher du Turk. From here the path descends on the other side of the crag and drops to the valley to pick up tracks and paths back to Vacqueyras via more fields of vines and woods. This walk is quite shaded in many places which makes it an option even in July or August. (In summer check for fire risk see practical information.)

A hike through the vineyards offering beautiful panoramic views: the Baronnies, Mont Ventoux, the Saint-Amand ridge, the Dentelles de Montmirail and the Comtat plain. This route follows tarmac roads (which make it easier for winegrowers to access their vineyards). In this region, during periods of drought, access to forest trails may be prohibited. In this case, this hike remains accessible.

A beautiful hike through vineyards and pine forests. Beautiful panoramic views and numerous passages through the undergrowth. Well-marked route (from the hut).

This is a short, easy route that can be enjoyed by families with young children. Almost the entire route is shaded. These old quarries were dug into the hillside to extract sand. They were then used by the Germans during the Second World War to store ammunition. Then, in the 1970s, they were converted into mushroom farms. They are now disused. It should be noted that the first quarries were open-pit. Their locations are marked by the presence of several lakes.
