The ochre cliffs of Roussillon
The heart of Luberon is known for its ochre cliffs and quarries, an unusual natural phenomenon that you would not expect to find on French soil. A special area dominated by colour.
It is fantastic to walk through this special natural phenomenon. You really feel as if you are somewhere else. The landscape of Sentier des Ocres in Roussillon, like its little brother Colorado Provençal in Rustrel, is very similar to the American Colorado, although you can imagine that the French version is smaller. Like everything in France, smaller and sweeter but oh so beautiful and oh so impressive.
