Take the D314 to the intersection of the RN100 (Apt / Forcalquier) and D907 (Manosque / Reillanne)

The little village of Villemus is situated between Manosque and Reillanne, in the heart of superb countryside. Far from the main highways, you will appreciate the fabulous natural environment surrounding the village.

By climbing the stairs opposite the phone booth, you will not only come across the ruins but there is a panoramic view over the Forcalquier basin, the Lure mountain, the Luberon and the Largue and Encrême valleys... it's a breathtaking sight !
