Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

View of Mont Ventoux

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A nice quiet road north of Mont Ventoux. This side is often forgotten by cyclists, preferring to ride south of Bedoin, however this side is certainly worth the detour.

Highlight • Cycleway

Pretty pass with superb landscapes of surrounding vineyards. A good warm-up before Ventoux, and a must between Bédoin and Malaucène.

October 15, 2022,Rund Mont Ventoux mit Gorges de la Nesque

Once around Mont Ventoux with a nice descent along the Gorges de la Nesque. Of course, a café crème with an Orangina in Aurel should not be missing.

May 12, 2026,🇫🇷 Le tour du Mont Ventoux

I hadn't been on the road long when I came across a road closure.
It was just strange that it was even "manned".

A nice lady approached me with a notepad and a walkie-talkie and explained that I would have to wait about five minutes, then the route would be clear again.

July 21, 2021,Tour du Ventoux

Loop from Sault. Tour as close as possible to the Ventoux massif. You can start the loop from wherever you want, actually.

June 13, 2026,Autour du Mont Ventoux

They were very nice, I rode with them for about 30km.
I lost them on the descent of the Gorges de la Nesque 🙃 There were other cyclists and I got caught out, I didn't …

Still my favorite loop from Bédoin. Coffee along the way and then a water bottle refill at a spring. Beautiful climbs and especially lovely descents.

November 17, 2022,Col de la Madelaine – Les Gorges de la Nesque Runde von Malaucene

Once around Mt. Ventoux on narrow roads. 5 years ago I drove up from all 3 sides in one day (I'm also in the Club des Cingles) so I'm more interested in the region around it.
