Around Saumane-de-Vaucluse
A pretty walk around Saumane-de-Vaucluse. Fine scenery and troglodytic dwellings. Since a lot of the walk is in the shade of the forest, it is pleasant in hot weather.
Circular around Saumane via the Rocher des Trois Luisants
A beautiful circular on very pleasant paths offering beautiful views of the plain, Mont Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail.
Valescure and the Trois Luisants
Set off to discover some of the gems in the Fontaine-de-Vaucluse region, such as the semi-troglodyte shelter in Marculy, the old Valescure farm and the watchtower at the top of the valley between Mourre Pelé and Trois Luisants.

From Fontaine-de-Vaucluse to Mérindol
This first stage of the Tour du Luberon offers beautiful, unspoilt Provençal landscapes through the rocky hills and valleys of sparse woodland bordering the Coulon Valley. The highlights of this route include the remains of the Plague Wall, built during the plague of 1720, the little Chapel of Saint-Eusèbe, the medieval village of Oppède-le-Vieux perched on a rocky outcrop, its church of Notre-Dame d’Alidon which offers a beautiful view over the valley, the Galère valley, the old village of Mérindol, its church of Sainte-Anne and its Reformed church.
Gorges de Véroncle
The walk starts near Gordes (listed as one of the most beautiful villages in France) and passes through the Véroncle gorge to Murs and its castle.
A very pleasant, energetic walk in the ravine of the Véroncle gorges, discovering the remains of old mills from different periods along the way.
There are a few ladders and ropes, and an old sluice shaft that cannot be avoided.
