Beautiful hiking spots can be found across the whole of the department along the Dentelles de Montmirail, in the heart of the Luberon Regional Nature Park and beside the lavender fields in summer.

To get some fresh air, to escape, or to challenge yourself, Vaucluse is the ideal destination – a natural and protected space, calling your name with its wide open spaces and sunshine.

Circular hike Gorges de la Nesque by C
October 24, 2025 · Community
<p dir="ltr">An einem wunderschönen Oktober-Nachmittag gemacht- traumhaft. / Wir sind die Runde vom Dorf aus gestartet und gegen den Uhrzeigersinn,  so würde ich es auch empfehlen, da man so den langen Anstiegam Anfang hat und den spektakuläreren Abstieg in die Schlucht. <br/> Einziger Wermutstropfen, wenn man so will: man durchquert die Schlucht dort,&nbsp; wo der richtig spektakuläre Bereich erst beginnt.&nbsp; Diesen kann man leider nur entlang der atemberaubenden Straße besichtigen. </p>

On the northern slope of the Grand Lubéron by Martin
October 05, 2025 · Community
Wunderschöne Wanderung! Der Anteil an Asphaltstraßen an der Wegstrecke ist etwas hoch. An manchen Abschnitten gibt es neben der Straße Trampelpfade. Leider sind einige Trampelpfade sowie der Aufstieg zum Plateau ziemlich zugewachsen. Der Weg zum Plateau ist anfangs etwas schwierig zu finden, dann aber gut erkennbar.

Les Gorges de la Nesque by Daniel G. P.
July 26, 2025 · Community
Wir finden , dass es eine anspruchsvolle Tour ist. Gute Orientierung erforderlich, da Wege in/ aus der Schlucht z.T. ausgesetzt und kaum gesichert sind (hat aber seinen Reiz). Die Wanderung ist zwar als Mittel eingestuft doch trittsichere und schwindelfreie Fähigkeiten sind erforderlich. Gute Kondition ebenso. Und ausreichend Flüssigkeit mitnehmen. Je nach Wetter wird es schweißtreibend aus der Schlucht heraus zu steigen. Wer das beachtet wird mit spannenden Tief- und Ausblicken belohnt und lernt die Provence ohne Lavendel kennen.
