Camping des Sources

Get your bearings by joining fellow guests on a sightseeing tour through the Luberon villages, and then head out at your own pace on trails that can be easily accessed from the site. It’s a three-hour round trip from the site to the 12th-century Senanque Abbey, or a five-hour hike to and from the gorges around La Véroncle. Maps for these and bike rides are available on site. The nearby village of Gordes, five minutes’ drive from site, is worth a wander – visit the ancient village of traditional stone bories before delving beneath the streets to take in the underground halls and stairways of the Palais St Firmin. If you’d like to see where your tipple originated, there are a couple of wineries around the village too. For a bit more big-city life, it’ll take you around 50 minutes to drive to Avignon with its museums and UNESCO-listed collection of medieval and renaissance buildings (and its handy tourist train for the weary of foot).
