ルピュイサントレパレードでののおすすめグラベルライド

This spot is unique because it combines several types of environments, the edge of the Arc along a very bucolic path, a touch of urban planning, the crossing of the red earth, the magnificent climb to the dam in a very Provençal environment, the ridge after the dam and the descent into the woods until you reach the town and its cycle paths...

Located at the foot of the Mourre Nègre, the Etang de la Bonde is a must-see place in the southern Luberon, combining history, nature and outdoor activities. In water all year round, it offers the possibility of swimming in all seasons. You will also find a campsite, picnic areas and catering services.

beautiful view

The Bimont dam, also called the Bimont dam or the Rigaud dam, is an arch dam commissioned in 1952 in the town of Saint-Marc-Jaumegarde, in the Sainte-Victoire mountain, near Aix-en-Provence. It is fed mainly by water from the west branch of the Canal de Provence, which is brought in via an underground gallery and drains off on the right bank just before the dam. It is accompanied by a counter dam located at its foot on the left bank, which collects the spilled water to supply the Marseille-North branch of the Provence Canal.

I would suggest transforming this essential into a MUST-SEE SEGMENT which better corresponds to the nature of this essential and will be made more visible on the maps.

Magnificent shortcut indeed! It avoids the route via the slopes by offering a beautiful, twisting and swaying single track between the trees.

Beautiful view of the gorges. Not to be passed without stopping!

Good place to take a rest. Magnificent view over the lake and the Luberon.
