On the terroir of the Côtes du Rhône" walk
Presentation
Travel to Provence Occitane, step back in time and narrow the field of distances from 360-degree vantage points. From your perch, observe the region's mountains, hills and rich architectural heritage.
To the north, the Château de Gicon, the Château du Jonquier and the Chapelle Saint Marc, to the east, the emblematic Mont Ventoux, the Dentelles de Montmirail, and a plunging view of the Rhône. To the south, the Castellas de Saint Victor La Coste stands before you, and to the west, Mont Bouquet and the foothills of the Cévennes.
