Informations supplémentaires

Roussillon is one of the most famous sites in the Luberon thanks to its geological wonders. Ochre quarries streaked with red and gold ochre sand have made. Besides the village itself, the Ochre Trail or Sentier des Ocres is an enjoyable hiking trail through a former ochre quarry. Sometimes referred to as the Giants' Causeway or Chaussée des Géants is an easy and dramatic mini hike near town. It is not clearly known why the pigments in soil have produced geological changes here and not elsewhere. Jean-Étienne Astier, a local who studied the properties of ochre, started extracting it from sand on an industrial scale during the 18th century.
