    It's the famous "16%", as it is nicknamed in the area! For nearly three kilometers, you will have to pedal hard to climb onto the Valensole plateau. But the rewards are significant: superb views of the Lac de Sainte Croix and the region await you up there, as well as the pleasure of driving on a superb road in the middle of the lavender fields. It's really worth it !
