'Une autre Provence' - a Different Provence - consists of the Drôme Provençale and the Haut-Vaucluse, with the village of Mollans-sur-Ouvèze lying right in the middle, at the foot of Mont Ventoux.

​

Everywhere you look you see wineyards, lavender fields, olive groves and apricot trees.

Mollans-sur-Ouvèze, the doorway to the Baronnies, is a peaceful and picturesque village with one of the most beautiful fountains and public washing places in the south.

​

The village marks the transition between the Rhône valley and the Alpes du Sud. Here, the mistral wind has already lost most of its power.

​

Mass tourism has not yet arrived, although the village is close to some well-known tourist destinations:

• Mont Ventoux, a legendary mountain amongst cyclists, is also ideal for walking, and you can even ski at the Mont Serein ski station in winter. 
   

• ​The Dentelles de Montmirail and     Buis-les-Baronnies are great for adventure sports: hiking, climbing, paragliding and via ferrata.
   

• ​You can visit cultural cities and remaining Roman monuments at Vaison-la-Romaine, Orange, Avignon and Pont-du-Gard.

• Typical Provençal villages: Villedieu, Montbrun-les-Bains and Sault.
   

• World-renowned wine villages: Rasteau, Séguret, Vacqueyras, Gigondas, Beaumes-de-Venise and Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
   

• Beautifull walks in the Gorges du Toulourenc and around Brantes, a hidden medieval village.
   

• The Gorges de la Nesque.
