The Luberon by bike

Another idea for a long-distance bike ride: the tour of the Luberon can be done in 2 to 7 days. Picturesque roads criss-cross an unrivalled landscape filled with reddish ochres.

For a more gentle route, the Calavon greenway, part of the "Mediterranean by bike" cycle route, offers a dedicated itinerary through the Luberon.
