Trail description
A 2.5 km loop of about 50 m of climbing on the Sentier des Ocres at Roussillon, in the Luberon regional nature park. Roussillon is famous for its ochres: large quarries were worked from the late 18th century and employed a thousand people until 1930. Collecting ochre is now forbidden to slow the erosion of the site.
