An exceptional land by the diversity of its landscapes and its colours  because in just a few kilometres you can discover two areas: The foothills of Mont Ventoux, an agricultural and wine-growing plain, and higher up on a vast and luminous plateau that culminates at almost 1,000 metres, lies the Sault country, where fields of lavender and cereals shape the landscape according to the seasons.

In Ventoux Sud, nature is predominant, as is silence... a sports and leisure destination at its best!
