빌라르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

At the highest point of the circular trail, there are great views of the yellow towers of the "fairy chimneys" and this part of the Luberon.

nice parking space

The view is fascinating. The sunlight can change within a very short time and the rocks can shine in various shades of ochre and even orange. Worth seeing!

Definitely recommended, the visit: It is called Colorado Provencal

The Ochre Trail (Sentier des Ocres) near the mountain village of Roussillon leads through the former quarries and offers remarkable landscapes that have been shaped by the ochre industry and nature over two centuries. For a small entrance fee, you can immerse yourself in the formation of ochre and the history of its use. The beautifully laid out trail through the former quarries is a unique experience. We were here in mid-March in the best weather; the colors were particularly intense and there were hardly any visitors with us.

The route marking of T1 is wildly misleading (!) The paths up and down the Gorge are a mix between T1, T2, T3 and sometimes just about T4. That's in fine weather. Take care of each other and help the others. There were quite a number of small kids of age 3 to 8 today. As all others write: it's a beautiful place and the descent into the Gorge gives a ton a great views. Take your time and be careful

Colorado de Provence is definitely worth a visit. Great colors.

Before the invention of synthetic dyes, it was in this industrialized zone that the ocher color was obtained. This site was closed only recently, in 1992, to be exploited for its ocher sand deposits at the end of the 17th century.
