Mont Ventoux

Located in Provence, Mont Ventoux is one of the most famous climbs used in the Tour de France. With a summit at 1911m above sea level it also offers an epic challenge to any cyclist. There are three routes to the top: from Bedoin, from Sault or from Malaucene. The famous 'moonscape' opens out approximately 6km from the summit, the wind and lack of protection making for some tough riding conditions . Although a summit selfie is obligatory after such an epic achievement, this view gives a distinct sense of how far you've come. The wagon selling cookies and treats at the height of the season is an added bonus!

View of Mont Ventoux from our terrace looking West
I went to Mont Ventoux a year after the Tour de France used it on their route, but you could still admire the graffiti on the road! The lower slopes are wooded, but half way up you arrive to a barren moonscape - according to the car temperature gauge it was 10 degrees at the foot of the hill and -4 by the time we got half way up.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (208 reviews)
The room was spacious and very comfortable with top notch interior design. The service was also impeccable from the valet service to the check in orientation and the breaksfast buffet. Walking distance to center of Aix. Better than the Ritz.

Popular places to visit

After driving through the lavender fields of Provence near Sault, you suddenly find the road get much narrower and the huge Gorges de la Nesque opens up before you. Stop near the beginning at the view points to see this amazing view down the valley with the road curving its way along the edge. Once you have started down the road, there won't be any places to stop as the road is narrow, steep and full of sharp corners. Definitely a hidden gem in Provence. #lifeatexpedia #roadtrip #france #provence
