Scenic viewpoint, Viewpoint in Roussillon, France.
The observation point stands at the highest point of the village, providing views across the Luberon massif and the Vaucluse Mountains.
The viewpoint location dates back to the 10th century, when the original castle used this elevated position to monitor the surrounding territory.
The ochre cliffs surrounding the viewpoint influenced the traditional color scheme of village houses, creating a natural color palette.
Two marked trails lead to the viewpoint: a 30-minute path and a 60-minute route through the Ochre Trail.
From this vantage point, visitors can observe the ochre quarries, displaying natural rock formations in yellow to purple shades.
