Mirabeau (Vaucluse) walks
The Mirabeau Botanical Trail
This is a beautiful walk starting from the village where many scenes from the films Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources were shot. You can rediscover the plants of our hills by looking for the signs at the foot of the plants.
The path is poorly maintained, but the view of the Durance, the village and the Château de Mirabeau are well worth the walk.
Between Mirabeau and Beaumont-de-Pertuis
From Mirabeau to Beaumont de Pertuis, between hills and descents, towards the Sainte Croix chapel and Notre Dame de Beauvoir.
The "tiny ochres" of Mirabeau
A walk in the hills and a scramble across a small area of orange sand.
Circular around the Plateau de Bèdes via Jouques
Circular starting from the hamlet of Bèdes, across the plateau, passing by Notre-Dame de Consolation. Beautiful panoramic views of the Durance, the Vautubière and the Peyrolles gravel pits.
No particular difficulty, between sandy (ochre) paths, tarmac and a few rocky passages.
The Vautubière mountain
Despite a slight elevation gain, this is a scenic hike with 360° views of the Luberon and, behind, Mont Ventoux, the Lure mountain, the upper and lower Verdon, and the Dévoluy. On the other side, you can see Sainte-Victoire, Sainte-Baume, and Mont Olympe.
In the Pays d'Aigues: from Grambois to La Bastide-des-Jourdans
A walk through the Provençal countryside in the magnificent landscapes of the Luberon Regional Nature Park. This route, linking two typical villages in the Pays d'Aigues, follows unmarked paths, often through woodland and away from any traffic.
The landscapes are varied and reflect the richness of the flora and a past that can be glimpsed.
Please note: follow the directions carefully; using a GPS device can provide additional safety.
Trou du Loup and Ravin de Bernadine, with return via La Bosse
An easy loop starting from Corbières, with the Torrent de Corbières gorges and the Trou du Loup. The start of the walk offers a glimpse of the gorge on a gently ascending path, with very cool spots and a wide variety of flora. The Ravin de Bernadine has the same atmosphere but with a torrent that is often dry. The climb to La Bosse and the descent on the way back take you through scrubland typical of the Luberon. A pleasant way to discover the hills and scrubland of the Luberon.
Le Trou du Loup via the cairn
This is a pleasant hike with a visit to the Chapelle Saint Brice, another to the cairn built here for the 20th anniversary of the Sainte Tulle Hiking Club, and finally the Trou du Loup reservoir.
Boucle des Crêtes de Vautubière
Located between Sainte-Victoire and Luberon, the Montagne de Vautubiere offers beautiful views of the entire Provençal mountains (from the Southern Alps to Sainte-Baume).
You can also discover a pretty hidden agricultural valley. This walk combines superb views with the freshness of cultivated meadows surrounded by forests, offering a pleasant change of scenery.
Chapel of Sainte-Consorce in Jouques
A walk to this little Provençal chapel on the heights of Jouques, at the top of Concors Mountain. Particularly isolated, it is only accessible on foot. From the top of Mont Concors, there is a beautiful view (watchtower), notably of the castles of Grand Sambuc and Petit Sambuc, and of Sainte-Victoire.
You can do this hike in reverse if you want to enjoy the views better on the way back. And enjoy a nice climb in the shade ;-)
Loop around the Pas de l'Étroit valley
Starting from Meyrargues, this hike offers superb views of the castle overlooking the village and the Durance valley. It takes you along the picturesque Pas de l'Étroit. The horizon is dominated in turn by the Luberon, Sainte-Victoire and finally the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps.
Mirail Spring and the Bastide du Bois
Start from the Mirail Spring and climb to the foot of the Luberon to enjoy a beautiful view at the Bastide du Bois. The panorama in an anti-clockwise direction offers views of:
- mourre Nègre.
- the Bonde lake.
- the Pays d'Aigues and Pertuis.
- the Étoile mountain range and Sainte-Victoire.
From Montfuron to Villemus
A walk between two small hilltop villages in the Luberon: Montfuron, with its castle and windmill, and Villemus, with its 12th-century chapel and paved slanting streets.
From Aire des Mascas to Coteau de la Combe and back via Vallon des Roumis
A lovely hike along the Luberon ridges, often through woodland with views on both sides. Views of the Pre-Alps and the Vaucluse mountains during the first part and of the Aigues valley and the Durance valley and beyond, weather permitting. A few kilometres on the DFCI track overlooking the valleys, but the view is well worth it.
Le Mourre Nègre via Cabrières-d'Aigues
A beautiful walk in the Grand Luberon with the Mourre Nègre, the highest point of this massif, as your destination.
The plain and forest of the Montagne de l'Artigues
An alternating view of pasture and fresh forests, this pleasant flat walk will lead you past the Notre Dame d'Esparron chapel and its small cemetery classified as an historical monument.
Crossing the tiny village of Artigues is also surprising. You'll particularly enjoy refilling your water bottles at the communal fountain.
The advantage of this charming loop that it's flat and very manageable, there are only one or two small climbs along the route.
Mourre Nègre from Cabrières d'Aigues
A round trip to the highest point of the Luberon mountains, from Cabrières-d'Aigues.
La Sainte-Victoire: from Pic des Mouches to Croix de Provence
A long circular hike starting from Vauvenargues that follows the Sainte-Victoire ridge from the Pic des Mouches to the Croix de Provence.
Discover the canals and forest at the small pass
A circular loop in the communal forest, where you will encounter the canals that irrigate Provence. You will test the echo in an access gallery to the current canal, reach the small pass, and return via the old canal. You will also discover the Parrouvier fir trees, which are exceptional at such a low altitude and regenerate naturally.
Artigues via the ridges
Circular, via the ridges of Montagne d'Artigues, with an optional visit to the village of Esparron. The first part follows the red and white markings of the GR®99A, and the second part follows the blue markings on the ridges.
