Gravel route n°17 - de Pierres et d'Ocres is the perfect way to discover the sport of gravel riding. An easy ride awaits you from Joucas. Discover typical Luberon landscapes, between ochre and vines!
The route has no real technical difficulties, but it does have a few steep inclines where you have to work hard. Over a succession of tracks and small roads, the route passes from one side of the Roussillon plain to the other and the Immergue, a tributary of the Calavon, linking four emblematic villages: Joucas, Roussillon, Saint-Pantaléon and Gordes.
