Description of Active Adventure



Provence Cycling 8 Days
Cycling in Northern Provence is a sensual experience. As you move slowly through the landscape smell the wild thyme and rosemary. Stop to admire the texture of olive trees against old stone walls. Taste fresh chèvre mingled with piquant tapenade. Listen to the splash of fountains in village squares lined with rustling plane trees. Cycle slowly and savour!

Typical Day


Itinerary

Day 1
Arrival in Vaison-la-Romaine. Visit the famous Roman ruins, then explore the medieval quarter perched high on the opposite bank.

Day 2
A delightful day ride from Vaison takes you to the east, under the flank of Mont Ventoux. Surrounded by almond trees, Entrechaux nestles around a hilltop castle in ruins. Mollans-sur-Ouvèze clusters around a high-arched bridge marked on each side by a tower and a tiny chapel.

Day 3
Wind your way among the wine villages of the Dentelles de Montmirail, stopping to explore Sablet, Gigondas, and Vacqueyras. Séguret is an artists’ colony, including makers of santons, delicate and detailed figurines in regional costumes. Spend the night outside Pernes-les-Fontaines or, if you have selected the luxe accommodations for this night, in the tiny town of Crillon-le-Brave.

Day 4
On a day ride from Pernes, search out the famous vineyards at Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Explore Pernes-les-Fontaines, with its twisting streets, houses painted in a rainbow of blues, pinks, and greens, and fountains gently splashing in squares lined by plane trees. If you’re staying in Crillon-le-Brave, explore Bédoin and the vineyards sheltering in the shadow of Mont Ventoux.

Day 5
On to the beautiful Luberon Valley. Pedal past Petrarch’s Fontaine de Vaucluse, then through Ménerbes, the village of Peter Mayle. Your destination is Gordes, a stunning perched town with artists’ studios, cozy cafés and arcaded medieval lanes.

Day 6
Enjoy a day ride from Gordes, discover the red shades of Roussillon and find the ruins of the castle of the Marquis de Sade at Lacoste. Pedal to the nearby Bories Village and Sénanque Abbey, set in a beautiful secluded valley.

Day 7
A final look at the orchards, vineyards, and villages of the Luberon before arriving at the waterways of L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue. Famous for its antique dealers and market, there’s still time for final gift and souvenir shopping and a little relaxing in cafés.

Day 8
Linger before departing.

Sleeping and meals


Accommodations
The classic level features excellent family-owned hotels, either 2-or 3-star level. Begin at the Burrhus, which doubles as an art gallery in the heart of Vaison. Relax in the romantic setting of L’Hermitage outside Pernes-les-Fontaines. Enjoy the comforts of the charming Les Romarins just outside Gordes. End at the lovely Mas du Cure Bourse in the country outside L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue.

Upgrade to luxe level accommodations: at Le Beffroi in Vaison-la-Romaine Day 1 and 2, the Hostellerie de Crillon-le-Brave in the tiny perched village of the same name on Days 3 and 4 and La Bastide de gordes in Gordes day 5 and 6.
