October 27, 2023,Provence 2023 - Petit Luberon

A very nice gravel tour through the bizarre cedar forest of the Petit Luberon with great views of the Vaucluse (with Mont Ventoux) and the Durance valley. However, the climb behind Puget to the ridge road is very rocky and impassable in the last few kilometers (alternatively, take the road via Loumarin).
