"Flassan in the heart of Provence, at the foot of Mont Ventoux, the authentic charm and a certain art of living!"
The town is located 45 minutes from Avignon and its famous festival, 15 minutes from Carpentras, the capital of the Comtat.
Located on the southern slope, 435 meters, the village seems nestled at the foot of the mountain. Thus protected from the mistral, it enjoys a privileged climate where we appreciate the sun but also the cool evenings.
The ocher facades of houses, warm colors, fountains and wash houses and picturesque streets around the church, one of the few Romanesque monuments of Vaison attract throughout the year painters and photographers. It is the same with walkers and hikers because Flassan is the point of departure or arrival of many trails and GR which allow to discover the landscapes and scents of Provence always, the sheep, coal and bories past. For its amazing richness in terms of fauna and flora, part of the Mont Ventoux has also been classified as a "Biosphere Reserve" by UNESCO.
As for the followers of the "little queen", the roads of their campaigns offer huge opportunities to conduct, perhaps, on the slopes of the Giant? Then they know that Eric Caritoux, the local champion, can usefully advise them, for he himself climbed repeatedly. Vast forest, woods, vineyards and fruit trees indicating that the village has retained its agricultural vocation. Visitors can taste, the seasons, local produce, grapes, cherries, truffles, olive oil and AOC or honey, fruit in syrup, jams and tapenade prepared on site.
Sports breaks? gourmet holiday? The calm and nature? With a particular environment, the proximity of the mountains, the colors of the South in a green, Flassan has strengths that begs to be shared.
