ヴァッケイラスの天然記念物・トップ6

The Rocalinaud Rock, also called the "Moon Rock," is a mass of sand formed by wind, rain, and humans over more than a million years. This rock is an unusual and enigmatic site, ideally located in the heart of a vineyard, east of the village of Beaumes-de-Venise. It is the remains of an underwater dune formed during the Miocene. Rocalinaud bears the shape of a strange, hooked beak.

a hike between scrubland and forest with magnificent landscapes

It is a unique geological curiosity in the region that is definitely worth a visit.

Lovely (dammed) lake. Refreshing swim after (or in the middle of) a bike ride.

A rocky path takes you to the top. There you have a beautiful view of the surroundings and can see the rocks up close. A man-made rock cave can be visited. You should have a fairly good head for heights.

Since I “know” the lake, it seems to me that the water level is decreasing more and more.

Beautiful view of the Barroux and the Dentelles de Montmirail. A little too much bitumen for the first third of the outing but otherwise very good. My phone was out of battery so I don't have the full route. Elevation difference D+ approximately 600 m.

Beautiful hike from Beaumes de Venise and Rocher de Rocalinaud, however the altitude difference is not 180 but 280 meters
