Mont Ventoux is the Giant of Provence, a solitary and proud sentinel that dominates the Rhône Valley. From its summit, the view extends to the Mediterranean Sea. Its surroundings offer fine Ventoux AOC wines, muscat grapes, cherries and the aromas of lavender and truffles. This exceptional natural territory became the Mont-Ventoux Regional Nature Park in 2020. Mont Ventoux is also remembered as the scene of legendary sporting feats during the Tour de France. Thousands of cyclists tackle its slopes to reach the summit.
