Route details
Description
Let yourself be surprised by our little local secrets and discover the City of the Popes on foot!
Before you begin, we recommend that you equip yourself as you would for a hike in the great outdoors: walking shoes, a small backpack with a bottle of water and protection against the sun, rain or the famous mistral.
The hike can be followed in either direction. We've chosen to present it counterclockwise, starting at the Avignon Tourist Office. However, you can also choose a different starting point and follow the route in the other direction.
Duration: Approximately 3 hours (without break)
Distance: About 10 km
Extension via Barthelasse Island: approximately 3 additional km.
Difficulty: Easy. Flat terrain, except for the climb to Rocher des Doms.
