Provence Day Three: Oppède le Vieux

Pathway

After a day of slogging through the rain, we come to the final path at the base of the hill of Oppède le Vieux. We are all relieved that this is our last climb of the day. We climb through the narrow path towards the central square of Oppède le Vieux, passing many small houses on our trip upwards.

A Church and A Castle

After a long day of walking in marginal conditions, we finally reach Oppède le Vieux, our destination for the day. Most of the group walk through the gateway that leads uphill to a 13C church and a ruined castle. From the top of the hill, there are excellent views of the Vaucluse.
