Malaucène is a Provençal village in Vaucluse, at the foot of Mont Ventoux. Its old town is easy to explore on foot, with stone façades, lanes and historic gateways. The village is also a stop for travellers drawn to the landscapes of Ventoux, cycling and hiking trails. The atmosphere changes with the seasons: summer days are lively with outdoor activities, while spring and autumn offer milder temperatures for exploring the surrounding area.

In the village, Porte Chaberlin and the parish church of Saint-Michel offer a glimpse of the local heritage. The Château du Barroux, 4.9 km away, overlooks the surrounding landscape; its rooms and grounds offer a chance to learn about the château's history and enjoy the views. The Groseau departmental forest, 1.5 km away, offers a natural setting for walks beneath the trees. For a longer outing, the roads of Ventoux attract cyclists and visitors keen to explore the mountain range. Carpentras train station is 15 km away; a car is useful for reaching the villages and sites scattered across Vaucluse.

To plan a day out, you could start by exploring the centre of Malaucène, then spend the afternoon walking through the landscapes of Groseau or visiting the Château du Barroux. Cyclists often choose spring or early autumn, when the weather is milder. In summer, plan walks for early in the morning and leave time to explore the nearby villages. The region is also well suited to stops at wine estates and walks among the Provençal hills.
