The Albion Highlands

A gorgeous patchwork of fields of blue lavender and golden wheat, the “Plateau d'Albion”, or Albion Highlands, stretch from the Luberon hills to the very confines of Vaucluse county, marked by Mont Ventoux, the Baronnies range, and Lure Mountain. This cycling trip starts from Sault and covers the wide-open spaces on the Albion highlands, where time seems to have stood still. The breathtaking landscapes instill sensations of isolation, beauty, and total freedom. Cycle through the immensity of these limestone highlands. The water which permeates the limestone makes its way to the Fontaine-de-Vaucluse and creates many caves along its way. This area is a favourite playground for experienced spelunkers.
