Bicycling through the Ochres
This 50 kilometre round trip takes you along picturesque backwater roads through the ochre hills sculpted by erosion and by man. These cliffsides and overhangs and disused quarries form some of the most beautiful countryside in Provence and some of the most remarkable villages: Rousillon, Rustrel, Gargas, Apt and Villars. Swathes of colour dominate the route in all directions and there are variations to the ride to allow you to make it shorter or longer.
