Description: This itinerary which takes the <strong>to</strong>urist road <strong>of</strong> the "Gorges de la Nesque", stays the most<br />

“sporting" road if you compare it <strong>to</strong> those proposed on the whole terri<strong>to</strong>ry: 22 km <strong>of</strong> progressive climb in the<br />

heart <strong>of</strong> a exceptional landscape: The Gorges de la Nesque, beautiful hydrogeologic breakthrough, wild<br />

canyon, where draw up themselves fantastic rocks which overhang an abyss throughout a road, marked out by<br />

tunnels and by belvederes - the one <strong>of</strong> Castelleras in front <strong>of</strong> majestic “Rocher de Cire” – At your arrival on<br />

Monieux you will discover the “Val de Sault”, its scents <strong>of</strong> lavender in summer, the relief which surrounds it<br />

and gives <strong>to</strong> this country a pleasant sensation <strong>to</strong> be protected. On the way back you will go down carefully<br />

along the “Monts de Vaucluse”, you will cross la “Forêt du Javon”, and will join by Méthamis the country <strong>of</strong><br />

the “Terrasses du Ven<strong>to</strong>ux”.<br />
