La Roque-Alric is a small Provençal village perched in the Dentelles de Montmirail hills, in Vaucluse. Its houses and lanes are set amid hills, vineyards and limestone peaks. This countryside suits travellers looking for walks, panoramic views and villages to explore by car. Les Terrasses de la Roque-Alric is in the village, close to its lanes and Saint-Pierre Church.

The Dentelles de Montmirail offer hiking trails and climbing routes popular with climbers. Château du Barroux overlooks the neighbouring village and offers a chance to explore a restored medieval fortress. The villages of Lafare, Suzette and Le Barroux dot the roads in the area, while the local wine estates offer another way to discover the region. Carpentras railway station, 10 km away, connects the area to the rail network. A car is useful for reaching the sights scattered across the hills, and free private parking on site makes getting around easier.

Spring and autumn are good times for walks through the vineyards and along the trails, with temperatures often milder than on the hottest summer days. In summer, plan hikes for early morning and save the hottest hours for the swimming pool or a village visit. You could spend a day walking in the Dentelles, stopping at Château du Barroux and returning to La Roque-Alric to enjoy the terrace. Wine lovers can devote another outing to the estates in the neighbouring appellations.
