Méthamis

Highlight • Settlement

Méthamis is one of those villages that are well hidden because they are far from very busy places.

The pass of the line, for example, which is close to the village, is little known and therefore little used.

Mid-September, a beautiful period during grape picking

This was the most beautiful bike ride I have ever ridden. 1A road surface on the drive through Georges de la Nesque, little traffic.
Back via Sault and St. Hubert. There was even less traffic.

The tour around the Gorges de la Nesque is the absolute crowning glory in this direction: beautiful climb with moderate gradient percentages from Methamis, the descent down to Monieux, the short climb back to the viewpoint and then the fabulous descent down to Villes-sur- Auzon over smooth tarmac and great views.

Great day out on the bikes, climbed the Gorges de la Nesque to the village of Monieux. Then turned right continuing to climb until Belvedere de Saint Hubert, before a long discent to the medieval village of Methamis.

Lunch was a picnic near Monieux and the reward for completing the ride was icecream at Lou Glacie de Vielo.
Very nice road bike tour in Provence. The Gorges de la Nesque in particular offers spectacular views. The roads are not very busy, so you can enjoy the landscape in a relaxed manner.

After a cold and a few days on the rocks, we went on the tour around the Gorges de la Nesque. After the Verdon Gorge, it is an absolute scenic highlight in Provence.
