Provence and Luberon châteaux in 2 days

2 days · 6 châteaux · 133 km

Avignon to the Luberon, six stops between palaces and hilltop villages.

Provence has fewer châteaux than the Loire but sets them on ridges, at the end of roads that are part of the visit. Two days, six stops, and light: this is the only route on this list where the hour of the day changes what you see.
