Puget walks

This route on the southern slope of the Petit Luberon takes you through two very wild valleys, with a passage through the famous Forêt des Cèdres in between.

A very wild hike on the southern slope of the Petit Luberon. The lack of signposting and paths on certain parts of the circuit means that access is restricted to experienced hikers.

On the southern slope of Le Petit Luberon, this trail is for experienced hikers due to two steep rises and randomly waymarked trails.

A beautiful circular route that takes you from the Durance valley up to the Luberon ridges and under the impressive Portalas arch, with a very steep descent after the arch.

A fairly challenging hike on little-used trails in the Petit Luberon. You will admire the Vallon de l'Arc, the Durance valley and pass under the Arche du Portalas, the most beautiful natural arch in the Luberon. There are a few tricky sections: two walls to climb, approximately 6m and 4m high respectively, with good handholds. Please note: a municipal by-law prohibits access between2 and 5 February and from the end of August. Please respect these instructions.

Hike on the southern slope of the Petit Lubéron starting from Mérindol. A beautiful climb up to the Forêt des Cèdres, offering wide panoramic views of the Durance valley.

This second stage of the Tour du Luberon takes place on the sunny side of the Durance valley, through the wooded valleys of the Luberon Nature Park. From Mérindol, the route follows the valleyfloor and, after passing Les Borrys, climbs towards the Pic de l’Aigle before descending into the Vallon du Gros Ubac, which it follows to reach the Combe de Recaute. It climbs its slope then crosses over to the Combe du Sautadou, which it descends before climbing up the Vallon des Séyes and reaching the Cap de Serre. Via the Vallon du Bon Dieu, it reaches Lourmarin and, skirting the foot of the Grand Luberon, heads to Cucuron.

A beautiful hike with magnificent views of the Durance valley.

In April 1545, nearly 3,000 Waldensians from Provence, who had converted to Protestantism, were hunted down and almost all exterminated on the orders of the Parliament of Aix-en-Provence. Mérindol was the first village targeted by this crusade against 24 villages in the Luberon, which were pillaged and burned. A memorial to the Waldensians of Provence has been erected on the site of the former fortified castle of Mérindol.If, like us, you don't immediately see any connection between Mérindol and Pic de la Mirandole, perhaps a little philosophical and purely personal reflection will help you make the connection... or not!

A short but challenging hike in the Bonnieux Cedar Forest.

This walk begins in the undergrowth and involves an almost continuous descent to the Combe du Sautadou, offering a beautiful mix of valley-floor vegetation typical of the Vaucluse heath.
