Here lies a forgotten place. The Bringasses - a Ligurian tribe - settled up here before Les Baux even came into existence. A ditch through which one enters the oppidum has been preserved. The walled part lies on the bare rock. It is quite a bit higher than Les Baux, so you have a fantastic view of the medieval castle and the town. Only a few tourists get lost here, you can enjoy the place and the view almost alone.
