Mont Ventoux
The Giant of Provence Malaucène Vaucluse
Mont-Ventoux watches over the region from its 1912-metre height, dominating Provence.
Our Giant of Provence looks towards the Alps to the north and the Mediterranean to the south. It’s a land, bathed in vineyards, orchards and lavender, where we love to put down our suitcases for vacations… Or forever! It’s also a sportsman’s paradise, with the personal and physical challenge of climbing by bike or hiking; in winter, it becomes a mountain resort where you can ski and snowshoe. Mont Ventoux is also a land of flavors, with truffles, Mont de Venasque cherries and Carpentras strawberries…
On the north face, Mont Ventoux is alpine in character, with some very steep areas. The Mont Serein ski resort, accessible via Malaucène in the Haut Vaucluse region, is located on this slope, with its numerous combes.
A paradise for cyclists and bicycles: the ascent of Mont Ventoux
Our mythical Mont Ventoux attracts amateur and professional cyclists from all over the world! Their challenge is to climb the giant of Provence in the Vaucluse region, reminding them of the glorious or sad stories of the Tour de France!
When we talk about Mont Ventoux, we talk about bikes, because the two are linked! So get on your bikes and pedal away!
So, are you ready to challenge our mountain?
