The diversity of the Vaucluse landscape

Vaucluse borders the Bouches-du-Rhône to the south and the departments of Ardèche and Gard to the west. It has a population of approximately 560,000 and an area of 3,567 km2. Its prefecture is the municipality of Avignon, which represents more than 25% of the tourist nights each year. You will find holiday rentals in Luberon in the heart of a preserved environment. You can also opt for an intimate letting in the small streets of Carpentras or Orange. The relief of the Vaucluse is characterised by several mountainous massifs and a combination of plateaus and plains. Altitude zones include the Monts de Vaucluse, Mont Ventoux and the Chaîne du Luberon. The department is crossed by many rivers, the main ones are the Rhône and the Durance. The vegetation is diversified, the Pays d'Aigues and Pertuis are distinguished to some extent by their fruit plantations. Hills of the North Vaucluse with the municipality of Beaumont-du-Ventoux are covered mainly with Aleppo pines.

The Luberon Regional Park presents an exceptional heritage, which all nature lovers must discover. Hiking is one of the most pleasant ways to observe the fauna and flora of this mountainous massif with the whole family. Another activity for people who do not suffer from claustrophobia is caving, to be practised for half a day or a whole day. Less dangerous but just as entertaining, the Festival d'Avignon opens its doors every summer. This international event welcomes many artists from the theatre and the historical inhabitants of the Vaucluse, particularly from Avignon. The berlingot de Carpentras is a candy made from candied fruit syrup, appreciated by young and old alike. The regional gastronomic heritage is also represented by the Cavaillon melon, which can be enjoyed in salads or gazpacho. Holiday rentals in Vaucluse allow you to cook local products yourself, which gives a special flavour to your holiday.
