The tourist service at Fontaine-de-Vaucluse :
From the sources of Vaucluse to the Mur de la Peste (Plague Wall) - a short, but technical and sporty loop.
Departing from Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, this loop is for experienced mountain bikers, because of the gravelly nature of the paths and technical passages that feature on the loop.
The ideal place for mountain biking in Provence - in a landscape made up of limestone and stone - with the fateful Mur de la Peste guiding the way.
