Difficulty

A big loop around the Ventoux massif without going over the top. From Bedoin you head through Malaucene and out toward Col de Fontaube, where the road gets quieter and the views open up across the north side of the mountain. From there you continue toward Sault on calm, lightly ridden roads.

The return through the Gorges de la Nesque is the highlight. The road is carved into limestone cliffs with long, sweeping lines and exposed views down into the canyon. From there the Route de la Gabelle brings you back toward Bedoin through more sheltered, rolling terrain.
