The spiritual importance of this forest probably explains this second feature: as a place of worship, first under Celtic religion, then under Catholic beliefs, this nature gem has been protected by populations for millenia.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Walking time<\/strong> : 3 hours<br \/><strong>Rating<\/strong> : moderate<br \/><strong>Season calendar<\/strong>\u00a0: year-round (summer : morning only).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"builder-section-text_161\" class=\"builder-section-prev-text builder-section builder-section-text builder-section-last has-background builder-section-full-width builder-text-columns-2\" style=\"background-color:#f98939;background-size: cover; background-repeat: no-repeat;background-position: center center;\">\n<div class=\"builder-section-content\">\n<div class=\"builder-text-row\">\n<div class=\"builder-text-column builder-text-column-1\" id=\"builder-section-text_161-column-1\">\n<div class=\"builder-text-content\">\n<h1><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18097\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?resize=869%2C652&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"869\" height=\"652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?w=869&amp;ssl=1 869w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?resize=24%2C18&amp;ssl=1 24w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?resize=36%2C27&amp;ssl=1 36w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.enrouteprovence.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/lavender-field.jpg?resize=48%2C36&amp;ssl=1 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 869px) 100vw, 869px\" \/><\/h1>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"builder-text-column builder-text-column-2\" id=\"builder-section-text_161-column-2\">\n<div class=\"builder-text-content\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>A genuine village in a beautiful setting:<br \/><em>Vach\u00e8res<\/em> and its plateau<br \/><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What first strikes your mind when you hike this small cultivated plateau is the panoramic far-reaching view it provides.
