Mane walks

If you like Bories, you'll see them in the distance at the start, then up close, and you can even go inside some of them. On your way back, before you get to the village, you'll walk up a superb calade (cobbled) street, and there's a little detour to see the Château de Mane.

Discover the Via Domitia, the drystone shelters, the Roman bridge, the Roman ford at Reculon, the hamlet of Les Craux, the village of Lincel and return via the astronomical observatory.

Located north of Focalquier, the Mourres rocks are a geological curiosity. The area is full of enormous mushroom-shaped rocks several metres high. The word Mourre means 'snout' in Provençal.

A hike between wild hills and a village full of character. Wash houses and fountains. A Neolithic rock shelter.

A beautiful short family hike in the Luberon Regional Nature Park. The commune of Saint-Michel-l'Observatoire is located between the Lure mountain and the Luberon massif. Lovers of old stones, Provençal nature and astronomy will be charmed by this route.

The small village of Limans is known for its six dovecotes.

A very easy walk to prepare for longer hikes. Very pretty view of the Volx rock.

If you enjoy walking in the forest, this hike is for you. You will encounter several species of pine trees, oaks and other service trees. Much of this hike is in the shade, so you can enjoy this circular route in summer when the sun starts to heat up.

This loop goes around a rock (La Roche Amère), which will be visible for much of the hike. A quarter of the way round, I suggest a detour to the Chapelle de la Roche. If you wish, continue past the chapel (not marked on the map) and follow the path that leads to the top of the rock (ruin), where you will have a beautiful view of the Durance valley.

This is a family hike that can be done with children. On your left, you will have a permanent view of the Luberon, with Mont Ventoux as the focal point. Then you will see the Montagne de Lure. On the way back from the circular, you can also admire the peaks of the Alps.

The village of Volx is known throughout Europe for its climbing guide, which has recently been redesigned and made safer. At the start of the hike, you will see the climbing walls on your right. At the end of the Capellane climb (it's steep), you will be rewarded with a beautiful view overlooking the village. Then you will have a superb view of the Durance valley on your left.

A loop which poses no problems so can be undertaken with children to discover a dovecote which is still in a good state.

A short but invigorating walk. From Villémus, a charming village in the Luberon region of Manosque, you will climb up to a ridge which you will follow before descending back down to the village. Magnificent landscapes and views of all the mountain ranges in the region, the Forcalquier plain, and the Durance and Encrême valleys.

A country walk between the villages of Ongles and Lardiers. A bucolic and peaceful route in the spirit of Jean Giono, surrounded by fields, farms, lavender and oak forests.

Ascent of Montagne de Lure from Saint-Étienne-les-Orgues. Circular route to the summit via Notre-Dame de Lure and the resort of Lure, covering part of the ridges of Montagne de Lure. This route offers varied landscapes, crossing a beech forest, alpine meadows and dwarf junipers on the ridges, all offering panoramic views of Mont Ventoux and the Albion Plateau, the Southern Alps and the peaks of the Écrins.

Lurs, a Provençal village perched on a rocky outcrop, with its shaded paved slanting streets, surrounded by a landscape of olive trees, offers an exceptional panorama of the Pre-Alps, the Durance valley, the Valensole plateau, the Montagne de Lure and the Luberon mountain range.

A short walk with lots to discover: the priory, of course, as well as an old millstone quarry and the oppidum known as Villevieille.

Discover the villages of Oppedette and Vachères, the Saut du Moine waterfall, and sweeping panoramic views of the Luberon, the Alps...

A pleasant hike along paths that wind through the foothills of the Lure mountain, allowing you to discover jas restored by volunteers from the commune of Cruis in sublime locations. Follow the yellow and red markings at first, then only the yellow markings.

Discover the Ganagobie plateau covered with oak and pine trees and its monastery. Beautiful view of the Durance valley and the Croix de l'Allée des Moines.

Route around the village of Montjustin. Magnificent views of the Grand Lubéron and the Encrême valley.
