Note from FULGAZ:
This ride is the second part of Lapierre Gran Fondo Mont Ventoux and is a fairly tough ride and goes over Col de la Gabelle where you see the giant of Provence looming in front of you in the first Km. After a descent we start at the ¨Gorge de le Nesque¨ then Col des Abeilles awaits …
Superb tour.
If you go through Flessan around noon, have a fresh sandwich (too good) made by the grocer. 5th generation! Very cool. Superb place to eat at 50 meters. See photos !

The tour to the Gorges de la Nesques impressed us so much last year that we absolutely wanted to do it again... and rightly so❣️
It's just indescribably beautiful there 😍

Showing Translation

I could do this tour again and again 😍
Pleasant elevation profile, gentle climbs, and a stunning landscape!❣️
We started in Villes-sur-Auzon, stopped at Lavande in Monieux, and then just rolled down the Gorges de la Nesque.
