Tourist service in Brantes :
A 10-day or 6-day hiking tour, depending on how athletic you are (approx. 6 miles per day or 12 miles per day). A national hiking path (GR®) across the iconic massifs of Vaucluse, from north to south: Mont Ventoux and the Vaucluse and Luberon mountains.
From the steep-sided Toulourenc valley to the summit of Mont Ventoux, the Vaucluse mountains to the Luberon massif, your route crosses the Vaucluse, taking in many emblematic landmarks. These nearly 100 miles of footpaths are a distillation of Provence, passing through vineyards and lavender fields, woodlands and valleys dotted with bories (typical dry-stone huts), potholes and truffles, all against a backdrop of “perched” villages in a grandiose setting.
