Hiking - Trails of the Maquis de Gordes through La Sénancole

Hiking and history, following the footsteps of the members of the Resistance from Gordes (1942 - 1944)

To convey the memory of what the Resistance in Gordes was like during World War II, the cantonal association "Cadets de la Résistance" has marked and enriched two "memory lanes" around Gordes with information boards. This first tour (A) goes along the west side of Gordes, passes through the famous "Village des Bories", then up the wild valley of La Sénancole until reaching the impressive Sénanque Abbey...

Caution with your ankles on rocky and slippery passages.

Be careful with traffic when approaching Gordes.

The route is signalled at major intersections by arrows with a brown Lorraine cross.
