The Ochres of Roussillon

Highlight • Natural Monument

The ocher rocks offer a very special play of colors from rich yellow to warm orange to bright red. The ocher industry once flourished here, today you can explore the bizarre rocky landscape on a bike tour or hike.

Roussillon

Highlight • Settlement

No matter which side you go from, you have to climb and the town is very, very crowded - at least in summer. But down at the entrance to the Ochre Rocks Trail there is a very tasty ice cream, which you can take with you if you have to get off your bike anyway because of all the tourists ,-)
