Schöne Ausblicke, wir hatten dank Wind angenehme Temperaturen. Die Tour ist auch im Sportschuh gut machbar. Die Richtung der Runde kann ich auch empfehlen, dadurch ist der steile Abstieg ein befestigter Weg.

Habitué des traversées sur une semaine(Verdon;Ardeche;Massif Central,.... cette rando reste à mes yeux la plus extraordinaire de part sa variété de terrain,ses sentiers uniques,ses villages traversés, attention c'est du physique et du technique,mais rien d'infaisable;il y a abondance de lieus pour se ravitailler ou dormir,sauf en haute saison durant laquelle il y a une meteo tres chaude et plus de monde

Very beautiful indeed but be warned, this track is not very easy and surely difficult for older people or small children. There are some steep, very narrow parts on the upper road, which can be annoying after a while because the track is so narrow that your body constantly touches some plants and trees. But, nevertheless, it is definitely worth the effort, the views are breathtaking. Don't do this track if it rains or snows, too dangerous.

Wunderschöne Wanderung. Tolle Ausblicke, größtenteils halbschattige Wege, deshalb auch trotz steiler Anstiege im Sommer gut machbar.

Magnifique rando, on en prend plein les yeux ! Attention tout de même, ça monte assez raide pendant les 3 premiers kilomètres avec beaucoup d'obstacles (pierres, branches, racines). Soyez prudents ! Petits détours conseillés : le belvédère du midi vers le km 1 et le Rocher du Turc vers le km 3.

Magnifiques points de vue sur la vallée du Rhône et les dentelles de Montmirail. Montée assez abrupte et chemins rocheux sur le haut. Le village de Gigondas est particulièrement agréable pour une bonne pause d'après rando.

Das Grenzgebiet zwischen Bollene, Avignon und Apt eignet sich hervorragend für einen Kletterausflug im Frühling oder Herbst. Der Hochsommer dürfte entschieden zu warm sein. Das hier beschriebene Gebiet ist hervorragend für Anfänger, auch im Vorstieg geeignet. Moderate Schwierigkeitsgrade und die Absicherung normal, also nicht völlig zugenagelt, wie gern von Frankreich immer behauptet wird. Man sollte sich unbedingt hier mit den notwendigen Kletterführern ausstatten: http://www.kletterfuehrer.net/Sportkletterfuehrer/Frankreich/Dent-de-Montmirail:::57_79_575.html In Gigondas gibt es eine "Bar" - Tagescafe in der man den Gebietsführer "Grimpe aux Denrelles" kaufen kann. Bei Kletterführernet ist er aber bereits in zweiter Auflage erhältlich.
