The village of Roussillon is set in a stunning location - its red houses built on a hill top contrast strikingly with the dark green woods that surround it. Beneath the village red cliffs plunge down steeply to the plain below. The ochre quarries, which are no longer mined, are open to the public and there is a beautiful path winding round between steep banks of yellow and pink rock, at places forming stacks known in Provence as 'chimneys'.
