      Discover the Mines de Bruoux in Gargas and set off on a journey to the heart of the ocher of Luberon! Vertiginous cliffs with flamboyant colors and a gigantic labyrinth of underground galleries make up a unique and mysterious setting where human labor mingles with the natural beauty of the Provencal landscape. Visit these old quarries, monumental remains of the glory years of the ocher industry and enter a maze of galleries more than 40 kilometers long and 15 meters high!
