Rustrel is a village in Vaucluse, in the Luberon, surrounded by hills, pine forests and ochre-coloured landscapes. The Provençal countryside is well suited to walks, cycling trips and visits to hilltop villages. In the village, the narrow streets and old buildings offer a glimpse of local life, while rural roads cross agricultural and wooded landscapes. This countryside suits travellers who want to alternate outdoor activities with stops in villages.

Colorado Provençal is the area’s landmark site: its former ochre quarries form colourful terrain criss-crossed by walking trails, 2.8 km away. Château de Rustrel and the village are 2.1 km away. In Apt, the history and archaeology museum and Musée d'Apt offer an insight into local heritage; the bus station is 6.6 km away. Further afield, Gordes and Sénanque Abbey make for an excursion among the villages and monuments of the Luberon. A car makes it easier to travel between these sites and the region’s smaller towns.

Spring and autumn are good seasons for hiking, with temperatures generally milder than in the height of summer. In summer, set out early to explore the trails of Colorado Provençal and enjoy the colours of the ochre before the hottest part of the day. You can spend a day in Apt, then head to a nearby village for a walk and a Provençal dinner. Markets and local festivals also shape stays throughout the seasons; the roads of the Luberon invite you to plan stops between villages, natural landscapes and heritage sites.
