"We were lucky to visit this site off-peak season as I'm sure it's not the same experience if it is crowded. The colour of the sand and rocks is incredible. What a surprise! It is a short walk around the Sentier and well worth it. It's definitely just a nature walk and the information on the sign..."s is rather short, but it's fun to visit. Well worth it just for the colours of the sand.

"This lovely walk through the former ocher quarry of Roussillon is definitely something you should do if visiting the village. There are "long" and "short" routes through the site, but even the long route is an easy walk for any reasonably fit person and shouldn't take more than an hour. The entire..." village is composed of the red rock, making it a worthwhile stop if village-hopping through the Luberon, but unless you are already planning a day in Roussillon, I wouldn't go out of my way to visit the quarry.

"We did not have time (or energy) to take the hike, but it was lovely to look at from high above in the town. The town is tiny but charming and, again, so different looking from other ancient French villages of the area. Do take this detour."
