Discover the small village of Lagarde d’Apt in the Luberon

Lagarde d'Apt is a tiny, secluded village in the northern part of the Luberon region, just a short walk from the Albion Plateau.

There you’ll find the Signal Saint Pierre at 1,256 m, the highest point of the Monts de Vaucluse, and acres of lavender fields. Upon arriving in Lagarde d’Apt, you’ll be surprised to find that it isn’t a village in the traditional sense - Lagarde d’Apt consists solely of a church, an inn, and two lavender distilleries. No village square lined with old houses, no maze of narrow streets, no benches where elderly locals chat about the weather. There are only 30 residents!

You’ll find a few isolated properties and farms, one of which offers a walking tour through its 80 hectares of lavender fields; you’ll also have the opportunity to tour the distillery on-site. Lagarde d’Apt is all about magnificent, untamed landscapes… it’s nature and nothing else, but it’s simply sublime.
