Practical field guide

Prepare a walk in the Luberon

Read the whole route description, check access and weather, and choose a walk that leaves a margin for the least experienced person.

The essential point

  1. Check distance, ascent, rocky passages, parking and the return to the start. Download the map and track for offline use before leaving.
  2. Carry enough water for the route and conditions, food, sun protection and clothing for changes in weather. Do not assume a spring will be flowing.
  3. Tell someone your route and expected return. Keep battery power in reserve and turn back if progress or conditions no longer match the plan.
