Lagarde-Paréol walks

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

Walk in the woods of the Montagne between Sérignan du Comtat and Uchaux.

About ten kilometres north of Orange, in the Haut Vaucluse, the hills of Uchaux conceal a little-known heritage: a chapel and 13th-century "castellas" surrounded by forests and vineyards offering quality wines await you.

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.

Route around the remarkable water sources of Camaret-sur-Aygues (Vaucluse) through the Plan de Dieu vineyards.

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.

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.

Pleasant 11 km circular route through the forest and vineyards, offering exceptional panoramic views and the pretty village of Cairanne.

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

Discovering the Roman city of Orange and its heritage with the very famous Antique Theatre (Théâtre Antique), which annually hosts the Chorégies d’Orange festival.

This circular route takes us on a journey through time, via the Château de Chabrières and the troglodytic hamlet of the same name, of which a few traces remain, the unique Grotte de l'Ermite cave, and the village of Barry, part of which has already been beautifully restored. This route keeps us sheltered from the Mistral wind most of the time and often takes us through woodland, offering magnificent panoramic views of the Rhône valley, Mont Ventoux, the Dentelles de Montmirail and the Baronnies. However, be sure to wear sturdy footwear as the terrain is often rocky. There is also a short, somewhat exposed section under the Château de Chabrières. As the Barry massif is criss-crossed by numerous paths, we recommend using the app's GPS.

A very beautiful family circular route between vineyards and forests, ending with a visit to the old village of Visan. Beautiful chapels among the vineyards and magnificent views of the valley.

This is a magical place that attracts many curious visitors. Unfortunately, the routes suggested on the signs are very old and the markings are random. Some trails are not shown on the IGN map. This loop is a good option for finding your way through the multitude of trails and getting a first impression of the site. Superb panoramic views and moving evidence of human occupation of this area from prehistoric times to the 20th century.

A family-friendly trail that explores the troglodyte village of Barry, one of the finest and largest in France.
