    The Nesque River gives its name to the canyon, through which runs the road that no Ventoux conqueror is allowed to miss. The view is terrific!

      The Gorges de la Nesque are highly recommended, especially in the eastern section of this canyon is absolutely impressive and it can quite with the Gorges du Verdon record. The road is in places spectacularly built into the rock face and leads through some short tunnels, which, however, are completely unproblematic even without light. Driving to Mont Ventoux via Sault is an absolute dream and much less traveled than the climb directly from Bedoin.
      The slope is very moderate and so you can enjoy the way uphill properly, downhill it rolls for it not everywhere by itself as fast as that is part of a road bike.

        Perfect location for fantastic tours. The incline is moderate and the route is in good condition.
