But don’t worry, you don’t have to get on your bike; you can drive up to the observatory for a breathtaking view of the whole valley.
To enjoy some of the finest scenery in the Vaucluse, take the picturesque road between Monieux and Villes-sur-Auzon.

In addition to hiking and biking on the many signposted trails accessible to all, Vaucluse also offers other fun and entertaining activities for the whole family.

It’s called “ Le Palais raconté aux petits et aux grands “, and admission is free for children under 8.
