Not to be missed: the ruins of the old Château de Murs on the opposite bank of the Calavon, the beautiful Château de Roquefure (private - not to be visited) and the famous Pont-Julien with its Roman stone arches, built in the year 3 BC.

Short variant: if necessary, possibility to shorten when the route joins the bike route twice.
Long variant: on the return to the height of Roquefure, possibility to extend by using the “Grand Tour du Pays d'Apt - GPS” (not marked, proposed only on GPS), until Roussillon, Gargas and Apt.

Attention: presence of herd protection dogs at the height of the farm Le Ménage (km 2.5).
