CIRCUIT VELO "ENTRE VENTOUX ET DENTELLES"
Provence à Vélo offers you 27.5 kilometers of challenging cycling. But you'll be royally rewarded with views of the Dentelles de Montmirail and the giant Ventoux. Start by climbing to conquer the tiny hilltop villages of Suzette, Lafare and La Roque-Alric. You're then in the heart of this incredible mountain range sculpted by thousands of years of erosion, aptly named the Dentelles de Montmirail. The terraced vineyards trace the curves of the hillsides. Admire the work and then relax on the terraces of the immense Château du Barroux, which has towered over the valley for over 1000 years and can be seen from the other end of the département. Just enough time to treat yourself to some olive oil milled in the château's old mill, and you're off again. It will take you around two and a half hours to complete the loop and return to Malaucène, having overcome a total ascent of 715 metres. If you fancy a refreshing dip, push on to the Notre-Dame du Groseau spring and chapel. The water is always fresh.
