A marked path, Le Sentier des Aiguilles is a half-day hiking itinerary set out by the Lubéron Natural Regional Park (contact@parcduluberon.fr), featuring informational signs about the formation and uses of ochre. Though largely replaced by synthetics, natural ochre is still highly prized. The local factory just outside the village of Roussillon produces about 2,000 metric tons annually and can be visited.
