The 50K of the Grand Raid Ventoux takes you to the summit of the Giant of Provence, through lofty ridgelines, legendary rock fields, and cultural treasures.
Starting in Malaucène, the route follows the early kilometers of the iconic Ventoux road, then crosses the natural site of Le Groseau and the village of Sainte-Marguerite. The ascent continues to the Crête de la Plate, offering breathtaking views over the Baronnies, the Dentelles de Montmirail, the Toulourenc Valley, and the majestic summit of Mont Ventoux.
You’ll then reach the Mont Serein ski station, before joining the GR4 trail that leads to the legendary summit of Mont Ventoux. The descent takes you through its famous rock fields, with cultural gems along the way such as Piaud Chapel.
A final crossing of the Col de la Chaîne offers one last iconic view of the Dentelles, before enjoying a triumphant finish in Malaucène, at the foot of the Giant of Provence.
