The route

The driver takes the A7 to Cavaillon, the Apt road, then climbs to Saignon along the Luberon road.

Arriving in Saignon

The village

Drop-off at the car park at the village entrance; the viewpoint rock is reached on foot.

Apt and Buoux

Apt is ten minutes away, Buoux and its fort a little further.

Saignon, above Apt

Saignon is a quiet village, chosen for its guest houses and hikes to the Mourre Nègre, the highest point of the Luberon. From the airport, a private driver saves you nearly two hours of public transport with changes.

On departure, allow a margin: the Apt road can be busy in summer.

The Bellevue rock

At the top of Saignon, the Bellevue rock is climbed by small steps cut into the stone: on a clear day the view runs from Mont Ventoux to the Alps. The Romanesque church and the village fountain are the heart of local life. Trails lead to the Mourre Nègre, the highest point of the Luberon, and to the Aiguebrun gorges. Hikers crossing the Luberon often stop here, and we can carry their luggage between stages.
