A fairly long route, without any major difficulty, following marked and fairly wide paths. Nevertheless, it is nearly 20 km long with a significant elevation gain. The first section is shaded and exposed to the mistral. Some paths in Suzette are tarmac-surfaced, but the alternatives cross private land or areas with rather noisy dogs.

Departure from Bédoin (Vaucluse)
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.
