Gordes Holiday Day 5 - Rousillon

Another pleasant bike ride - this time to Rousillon the ochre village. Arrived just after 10 am and stopped for a coffee and a wander around the village centre. We followed this with a walk round "Le Sentier des Ocres" an old mining area with large exposures of colour ochre.



We stopped for a nice lunch in the village centre before riding to the "ecomuseum de l'ocre" which was a former ochre works converted into tourist attraction.


A sharp ride back home to Gordes up the steep hill left us tired and sweaty.
