To discover at the entrance to Vaison La Romaine

Here you are in the heart of the Dentelles de Montmirail, a series of three limestone ridges. The view of the rocks, forests and vineyards is breathtaking.

Superb course 🏔️! Please note that part of the hike takes place on private land with hunting trips organized on certain days 🐗🐺(please inquire beforehand). 🚨I strongly advise against the company of a four-legged animal 🐶to accompany you as well as young children🐣. The trail is largely marked but lacks maintenance at the end of the route (we were navigating using the iPhone and we hesitated several times). Three technical passages are made easier thanks to equipment fixed to the mountainside but these remain dangerous ⚠️. Ideally start the route in the morning and not in the middle of the afternoon and also bring water 💦 (in short, don't do this in a hurry) Have a good walk everyone

I became aware of this gorge through the tips here. We first walked along the mountain from the bridge and then got in at the back parking lot, so to speak, downstream. The river hike experience is a glorious one. It took us a good 2 hours to get back to the bridge...a special kind of pub tour 😆. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Here's the starting point for a river hike, which varies considerably in difficulty depending on the direction – upstream or downstream. We're choosing the easier route, upstream. The hike is truly an adventure. Often the water is shallow, allowing for easy progress, but sometimes you have to wade through deeper sections. There are also some short climbs involved when the river becomes too shallow to wade through, requiring you to scramble over boulders or climb up the current. It's advisable to wear water shoes or sturdy trekking sandals; walking barefoot through the river can be quite painful for sensitive feet. It can also be painful for less sensitive feet, as the rocks in the riverbed are jagged and sharp. But by then, you're already well into the hike and no longer at the starting point, which is what this is all about… Nevertheless, it's highly recommended – incredibly fun! However, a word of caution: after heavy rain or in unsettled weather, the hike should not be undertaken, as the rapidly rising water level is a significant risk. Warning signs provide further information. So always keep an eye on the weather forecast. (We were traveling in September, and there were quite a few severe thunderstorms with heavy rainfall.)

This is the entrance to the Toulourenc Gorge. A path leads to it, but you can also choose to walk in the river if the weather permits. The water here is shallow. 400 meters further on, the gorge will narrow; it will then be safer to rejoin the marked path located along the riverbank. In recent years, it was not uncommon for the riverbed to be completely dry during the summer months.
