During the lavender blooming period do the miss the cistercian Senanque Abbey surrounded with lavender fields on the foot of the village.
A short driver across lavenders and sunflowers wil take us next to Roussillon, also known as " the Colorado of Provence " with its open air ocre quarry and path.
