The Mountain of Banne
A hike for lovers of unmarked trails, a partial circular on an isolated, uncrowded and wild mountain. Magnificent lavender fields at the foot of the mountain, a beautiful view of Le Poët-en-Percip and its Tunes and Loube mountains during the steady climb through broom on easy rocks. The superb circular panorama at the summit over Ventoux, the Geine mountain, the Chamouse mountain, the Écrins, the Dévoluy, the Angèle, Miélandre, the Lance...
Walks near Montagne de Banne
From Saint-Auban-sur-l'Ouvèze to Izon-la-Bruisse via the summit of Chamouse
This is the first stage of a three-day circuit on the ridges of the Méouge and Ouvèze rivers. Between heaven and earth, this is an exceptional route, mostly along ridges. Throughout the day, there are fantastic views of the Ouvèze valley, the Provençal peaks such as Lure and Ventoux, and then the Southern Alps. This is a wild route, far from everything, ending in the equally wild micro-village of Izon-la-Bruisse.
Saint-Auban-sur-l'Ouvèze - Izon
Perhaps the most beautiful stage of the Tour des Baronnies. Between heaven and earth, it is an exceptional route, mostly along ridges. Throughout the day, there are fantastic views over the Ouvèze valley, the Provençal peaks such as Lure and Ventoux, and then the Southern Alps. The route is particularly wild, far from everything, ending in the equally wild micro-village of Izon-la-Bruisse.
From Izon-la-Bruisse to Saint-Auban-sur-l'Ouvèze via Perty and Arsuc
This is the third and final stage of a three-day tour of the Méouge and Ouvèze ridges. You first pass through the western face of the Montagne de Chamouse, with its magnificent beech forests, before reaching the remarkable Col de Perty. Then, you'll follow the ridge for several kilometres via the summit of Arsuc and Serre de Charbouisse, enjoying breathtaking views of the Alps and the Ouvèze valley. The last third of the day allows you to explore the hamlets of the valley, in a pretty rural setting.
Izon-la-Bruisse - Orpierre
Another beautiful stage to reach the medieval village of Orpierre, surrounded by its famous cliffs. Straddling the Céans and Méouge valleys, this time it is the endless, narrow Chabre ridge that serves as the guiding thread for the hike, culminating in the picturesque Col Saint-Ange and its climbing walls.
Rosans - Saint-Auban-sur-l'Ouvèze
Connecting these two beautiful little villages is a very varied stage, which takes the time to explore the Provençal countryside between meadows, orchards and hamlets. The summit of La Vanige, which is optional, is clearly worth the detour for its adventurous climb and aesthetic rocky ridge.
From Bédoin to Mont Ventoux
Bédoin - Mont Ventoux is a legendary stage of the Tour de France cycling race. This hike provides more direct access to the summit, via paths that follow the ridges and valleys of the mountain's southern slope. At the beginning, the paths run through pretty woodland, which is magnificent in autumn. Towards the end, the paths cross the rocky landscape of light-coloured stones at the summit of the mountain. Along the way, you will come across "jas", mountain sheepfolds built from dry stone walls.
