Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Start at the motorhome parking space in Mormoiron. There is almost no traffic on the D4 after the D177 junction. On the descent via the D15 and D5 you have beautiful views of Mont Ventoux. In Mormoiron in the Bar de la Liberté you can sit in the shade with a beer.
