Hiking - MAUSSANE LES ALPILLES - Towards Les-Baux-de-Provence

Among olive trees and scrubland, a loop with exceptional landscapes, around a rich built and amazing heritage!

Discover the olive crops classified as AOC, the many irrigation canals, stone built houses, a cave house ... the route passes under the rocky outcrop of Baux which looks like a boat prow close up and from far, it remains a stunning view. The scrubland reveals a quite unusual scenery of Provence, with its "baou trouca" pierced rocks. The trail ends by crossing the old Maussane and passing through the village center.

For safety issues and for the preservation of forests, access to natural areas is regulated from June to September.
