Mountain biking
3h
Hard

  • • Starting point : in front of the Gargas Post office.

  • A beautiful ride with a rather easy going profile where your wheels will tread on the Perréal grey marlstone, on the Monts-de-Vaucluse pebbles and the ochre sands of La Gardette. As a bonus, it offers a beautiful view of Roussillon, crosses small beautiful hamlets and farms, and shows unexpected heritage such as the Ecomusée de l’ocre and the Mines de Bruoux (strongly recommended).

    Warning : Control your speed well going downhill; you are not alone on these trails!
