Hiking - Underground water tanks in Travignon

Starting at the hilltop village of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, a great trip on the Sentier des Aiguiers, the top of Mount Cluyer and the ruins of Travignon.

A long walk without great technical difficulty but with a good vertical drop that initially passes through the beautiful hilltop village of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, then takes the ''Sentier des Aiguiers'' crossing the dome of Mount Cluyer, coming back to the abandoned hamlet of Travignon and finally ending with the large wild valleys of the southern flank of the Monts-de-Vaucluse

Be careful with your ankles through the rocky areas (lapiaz) of the dome of Mount Cluyer (between points 2 and 3), then the craggy path going down in the valley of Travignon (between points 4 and 5).


Do not enter the ruins of Travignon; risk of collapse!


Respect the tranquillity, the ancestral heritage and properties (some Aiguiers and Bories are private).


Refrain from picking mushrooms and do not enter the truffle zones.


Although the hiker always has priority, stay alert when approaching bikers, very present on the paths of the area.
