Step back in history, surrounded by Provence's thyme-scented landscapes!
Starting from the village, this circuit leads you out into nature and offers great views over the fortress from different angles so you can appreciate its imposing architecture.
The fortress is open to visitors, with activities that give a taste of 13th-century life in a Provençal castle. By walking round this commanding rocky spur, you get a good sense of this fortress's defensive role during the Hundred Years' War.
This walk is detailed in the guide available from Bollène Tourist Office.
