Very difficult

  • Starting from the car park at the entrance to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, head towards the centre through the quaint little streets typical of such a ‘Village de Caractère’. Follow the signs for le
    Pont Roman (Roman bridge) and then cycle through the olive groves which overlook the village. Navigate the network of technical rocky paths that lead to the hamlet of ‘En Naups’.

A long ascent takes you to le Col de la Cabane where you will cycle along the foothills of Montdenier to Baisse. One side boasts a splendid view of Mont Chiran (1900m altitude), whilst the other offers fantastic vistas of le Lac de Sainte-Croix and Haute-Provence through to Mont
    Ventoux. Take the stony path back down to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie. This section of the route overlaps with...
