    Hiking

    Brantes is a small village on the mountainside, dominated by the Ventoux. Its name comes from the stack of unstable limestone layers of the mountain against which it is located, Brantulas which means “The rickety one”. Around the 12th and 13th century, Brantes was a crossing point between Mollans and Montbrun, passing from the Ouvèze valley to that of Toulourenc. The village's economy is essentially based on crafts, goat breeding and cheese making. Strolling through the alleys and arched passages is very pleasant.

    In April the place is more or less deserted - a few cyclists and wolves 😀 - wonderful location, great view of Mont Ventoux.
