The tourist service at Bédoin :
This is an easy mountain bike trail ideal for exploring the village of Bedoin and its surrounding areas.Some parts of the trail present a big difference in height or level.
Pick up a map from the Tourist Office and follow the route along small roads, dotted with unusual sites.
Once you’ve passed the maison forestière des cèdres (forester’s house), you’ll reach the Demoiselles Coiffées, set in an amazing ochre landscape. Then head for Les Baux, a typical Provençal hamlet, followed by an easy climb to the place known as “les Clops.” The last third of the route is a pretty downhill run, leading you back to the village of Bedoin.
