Sunset in Old Oppède

Perched on the foothills of the Luberon, Old Oppède has preserved a unique atmosphere, with its cobbled lanes, medieval remains, historic houses and sweeping views over the Calavon Valley.

This guided tour takes you gradually up towards the Notre-Dame-d’Alidon collegiate church and the remains of the fortress. Along the way, discover the village’s eventful history, its heritage and the traces left by its past.

At the top, the sunset creates a magical moment overlooking the landscapes of the Luberon, with Gordes, the cliffs of Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, the Monts de Vaucluse and Mont Ventoux in the distance. A peaceful and contemplative tour, perfect for enjoying the cool evening air.
