Les Balcons de Manosque is the title of a series of walks organised by the Manosque Heritage Committee (CPM) that allow you to discover the town’s heritage beyond its walls.
This route takes us along the Luberon ridge and then descends through the "Ravin des Couquières". Amidst a magnificent landscape dominated by woodland, you will discover a troglodyte dwelling, the remains of a clay quarry, the "source des maquisards", a water mine and the mysterious Blue Cave.

The final stage of this route is long and varied. The first section takes place on the plain at the foot of the Luberon ridges, which were traversed in the opposite direction during the second stage. We then gain altitude, climbing successively to the villages of Glorivette, Castellet-en-Lubéron and Auribeau, the latter two boasting a rich heritage. We then descend all the way, passing through the beautiful village of Saignon along the way.

This fourth stage begins with a route halfway up the wooded slope of the Vallat de Pissaire before entering the Ravin du Gancet and then crossing the Aiguebelle valley to reach the hilltop village of Montjustin. The route follows the ridge of the hill separating this valley from that of the Encrême and descends to reach Céreste, situated at their confluence. It crosses the remarkable Pont de la Baou before revealing, nestled in the woods, the medieval Priory of Carluc. It climbs the side of the valley and swings over to that of the Grand Vallat, then ascends its sunny slope towards Sainte-Croix-à-Lauze, from where it reaches the top of the Cavalon valley before descending it to reach the village of Oppedette.

The route reaches the hilltop village of Villars before continuing on to Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt.
