few kilometres from Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, Saumane harbours the subtle charm of an endearing little village, next to one of the most popular tourist spots in Vaucluse. It is also the starting point of a hiking trail that leads up to Rocher des Trois Luisants, a great opportunity to visit remarkable sites and viewpoints whilst keeping fit ! This meticulously planned route also gives you the option to visit the old Valescure farm, a little natural haven which charms everyone who visits.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n            \n<div class=\"block-recap-experience\">\n\n    <div class=\"container\" >\n        \n\n<p class=\"block-recap-experience__chapo\"><\/p>\n\n\n        \n              <div class=\"row block-recap-experience-picto\">\n                        <div class=\"col\">\n                <div class=\"icon exp_duree \"><\/div>\n                <p>Dur\u00e9e :<\/p>\n                <p>3 heures<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n                                                <div class=\"col\">\n                                        <div class=\"icon exp_pied \"><\/div>\n                        <p>Type :<\/p>\n                        <p>Randonn\u00e9e<\/p>\n                            <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns block-3-columns\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"block-3-columns__inner\"><div class=\"row justify-content-between\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-layout col-md-6\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns__heading\">1 &#8211; Headed for the top<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-content row justify-content-between\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-content-main col-md-6\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns__subheading\">From the Ch\u00e2teau&#8217;s car park to Rocher des Trois Luisants<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"block-3-columns__text\">The route starts off gently; you climb up steps which run through a forest of tall conifers, along a wide, straight path stretching from the Ch\u00e2teau&#8217;s car park to La Vignerme. You&#8217;ll then pass beneath the shade of Saint-Gens, a local miracle worker who prayed fervently for rain, before continuing to walk along scenic, stone-paved footpaths lined with dry stone walls, onto which the playful shadows of oak trees are reflected. Slowly and steadily working your way up the hill, you may not notice the gradual difference in altitude, until you arrive at the Trois Luisants, where the horizon stretches out across the gigantic expanse of the Comtat plain ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-content-snacking col-md-5\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full block-3-columns__snacking-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"50\" height=\"59\" src=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2019\/12\/saviez-vous.png\" alt=\"le saviez-vous ?\" class=\"wp-image-48\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns__snacking-heading\">Who was Saint-Gens?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"block-3-columns__snacking-text\">Saint-Gens is said to have been born in Monteux, at the foot of Mont Ventoux. He then retreated into a ravine on the northern slope of the Trois Luisants, in the municipality of Beaucet, where we continue to visit his shrine today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-image col-md-5\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full block-3-columns__image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"621\" src=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2024\/03\/chemin-3-luisants-Genestal.jpg\" alt=\"Hiking in Saumane\" class=\"wp-image-5218\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2024\/03\/chemin-3-luisants-Genestal.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2024\/03\/chemin-3-luisants-Genestal-290x300.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-inverse block-3-columns-inverse\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"block-3-columns-inverse__inner\"><div class=\"row justify-content-between  col-md-12\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-inverse-layout col-md-12\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns-inverse__heading\">2 &#8211; Venturing over to the Other Side : Vallon de Valescure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full block-3-columns-inverse__image col-md-5 float-left\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"665\" src=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ferme-valescure-Genestal.jpg\" alt=\"Valescure Farm\" class=\"wp-image-5219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ferme-valescure-Genestal.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2024\/03\/ferme-valescure-Genestal-271x300.jpg 271w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-inverse-content row justify-content-between  col-md-7\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-inverse-content-snacking col-md-5\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full block-3-columns-inverse__snacking-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"50\" height=\"59\" src=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2019\/12\/info-pratique.png\" alt=\"Info pratique\" class=\"wp-image-57\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns-inverse__snacking-heading\">Valescure Farm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"block-3-columns-inverse__snacking-text\">Partially restored by international volunteer camps, Valescure Farm is owned by the municipality of Saumane. It stands on a 400 hectare site that is rich in biodiversity. Please respect the area and don&#8217;t leave any rubbish behind.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-inverse-content-main col-md-6\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns-inverse__subheading\">From Rocher des Trois Luisants to the Old Valescure Farm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"block-3-columns-inverse__text\">It is now time to embark on your descent via GR<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>91, a route which comes around Vercors and ends in Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, from where you can see the top of the enormous cliff overlooking the resurgence of the Sorgue. If you pay attention, you&#8217;ll notice the subtle tilt of the landscape. Limestone formations make up much of this area, as well as crumpled folds of suddenly steeper and rougher terrain. And there, at the very bottom, in a large valley dotted with conifers, a lighter, greener spot brightens up the landscape: the <strong>old Valescure<\/strong> <strong>farm<\/strong>. It takes just under forty minutes to reach the outskirts of Valescure farm, situated within a charming meadow in the shape of a runway. It is a pristine natural setting, lovingly and carefully preserved; the ideal spot for a picnic along this route.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns block-3-columns\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"block-3-columns__inner\"><div class=\"row justify-content-between\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-layout col-md-6\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns__heading\">3 &#8211; Heading back to Saumane<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-content row justify-content-between\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-content-main col-md-6\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns__subheading\">From the old Valescure farm to Saumane<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"block-3-columns__text\">Turn around once you&#8217;ve reached Valescure and continue to follow the route, which loops back to Saumane. Along the way, it makes a detour through the charming Combe de B\u00e9riguier, a beautiful spot, hidden among the greyish trunks of tall Aleppo pine trees and intersected by a narrow cobbled path, which is pleasant to walk on. Take a pause after passing through the thalweg, before climbing back up to find a rocky passage, shaped much like a corridor. At this point you might be eager to get back to Saumane but if you&#8217;re not pushed for time, you should definitely visit the Abri sous Roche &#8211; an astonishing stone restoration resembling a tall, large grotto, arched over the path. It is an unusual site and an important part of Saumane&#8217;s identity; Saumane is one of numerous villages in Provence which has been built around its impressive geographical assets, enabling landscape and architecture to exist harmoniously within the same region. A visit to the Abri sous Roche on the last leg of your journey will end this rewarding hike on a high note.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ai-blocks-block-3-columns-content-snacking col-md-5\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full block-3-columns__snacking-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"50\" height=\"59\" src=\"https:\/\/www.provenceguide.co.uk\/app\/uploads\/2019\/12\/detour.png\" alt=\"Ca vaut le d\u00e9tour\" class=\"wp-image-55\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading block-3-columns__snacking-heading\">Ch\u00e2teau de Saumane<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"block-3-columns__snacking-text\">Overlooking the village from its rocky ridge, Ch\u00e2teau de Saumane has long been owned by the family of Marquis de Sade, who spent part of his childhood there.
