Les Demoiselles Coiffees

The Les Demoiselles Coiffees features tall limestone boulders with distinctive caps perched on top, resembling figures wearing large hats in the landscape.

The geological formations developed through millions of years of erosion, where harder rock layers protected softer materials underneath, creating these balanced structures.

Local traditions include stories about three sisters transformed into stone pillars, connecting the natural landmark to regional folklore and community heritage.

Visitors can access the site through a 5-kilometer hiking trail from Bédoin, with parking available near Curnier guest houses and clear signage marking the path.

The geological formation combines multiple rock layers of different densities, resulting in natural sculptures that maintain their balance despite continuous weathering.
