Mont Ventoux summit

Highlight • Summit

It is on the square in front of the old summit observatory that most of the cyclists who climb Mont Ventoux meet because the sign “summit of Mont Ventoux 1,912 meters” is there and all the climbers of the whole world wants to take the famous photo. There is sometimes a queue.

On this square are the Belvedere of Provence which offers views of the Albion plateau to the Mediterranean and the Belvedere of the Alps which opens onto the northern part. On a clear day, you can clearly see the department of Drôme, the Pre-Alps and the Alps.

By climbing slightly to the base of the antenna, you will be able to read below written on the ground, in large figures, the new official measurement of the Giant of Provence by the IGN: 1,910 meters.

Pass of Storms

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The storm pass is one of the last bends of the final ascent. We discover a magnificent view and very close is the memorial dedicated to Tom Simpson who died July 13, 1967 during the Tour de France of that year.

If you don't fear surfing on steep and deep gravel, you will love this 15km S2 trail.
But there are also flowing routes
