View of the Luberon

Highlight • Viewpoint

I started from the Gordes campsite. From there through the woods. No paved paths, very natural. From the path later on there was a beautiful view of the monastery.

View of Gordes

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the Route de la Combe, the view of Gordes is truly breathtaking. This hilltop village, one of the most beautiful in France, is revealed with its dry stone houses that seem to hang on the hillside. In the background, the rolling landscapes of the Luberon add a touch of magic to this panorama. The road winds through Mediterranean vegetation, between olive trees and holm oaks, offering a new perspective on Gordes at every moment.

Bories Village

Highlight • Historical Site

The Bories are a beautiful place, especially if you are here outside of the holiday season and have almost the whole museum village to yourself. Then you can sit for a while in one of the stone huts, enjoy the atmosphere and admire how carefully the stones have been chosen to fit together.

Sénancole Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Great hike from Gordes, also nice with route over Village des Bories. Track is not clearly recognizable everywhere, but with a practiced orientation and the app card that works. After the descent, it is a bit ugly with scrub, but the goal of the Abbaye de Senanque compensated in any case.

Very nice tour. We started in Gordes. At one point, we hesitated. The Sénanque Abbey was indicated on the right, with the markings of the Vaucluse crossing, while a Cross of Lorraine indicated on the left. We turned right and found ourselves in a denser forest, with a much less marked path, and had to climb rocks, about 1.5 km …

First, take the asphalt road towards the open-air museum "Village des Bories". These original stone houses in various states of preservation can be seen everywhere along the way.
Continue on small paths down into the canyon that the stream "Le Senancole" has formed over millions of years.
The path is a little difficult to find in places.

Absolutely gorgeous hike!! Craziness!!!
From Gordes we went along beautiful old stone walls to the Village de Bories. This is extremely beautiful and highly recommended (admission eight euros). Then it went through very beautiful landscape through the valley. Unfortunately, we missed the turnoff to an oil mill. But then it went to the Abbaye Senanque (first along the yellow then …

Very nice round trip from Gordes through the gorge to the monastery and back over the pass to Gordes. Shady and varied paths. At one point you have to watch out for the slope. At one point a rock blocks the way through the riverbed, so you have to climb over it. The stream was dry where we were. If …

We had to abandon the planned walk, retrace our steps and Find another route as the path wss blocked, only passable with some serious vertical rock scrambling- too much for my old knees im afraid! Scree paths a bit challenging in places. Still a lovely walk
