Not to be missed:

Apt: big city in the heart of the Luberon. Walk around the ramparts and stroll through the alleys of the Old Town. We appreciate St. Anne's Cathedral, the Royal Chapel and its treasure, the Maison du Parc du Luberon and the Clock Tower.

Villars: this pretty little flowery village wraps up on the top of a small hill. Here harmoniously blends architecture and nature: you are in the Land of ochres.

Saint-Saturnin-les-Apt: despite the recent villas surrounding this agricultural village, discover in the heart of the city very beautiful old mansions with carved porches and also enjoy the remains of the castle and ramparts, the Priory Saint-Pierre d'Agnane and the mill.

Gargas: The village has quarries still in operation surrounded by vineyards and pine covered hills.
