Hi guys, I'm in Provence for a week later in the year and whilst I will of course be road cycling most of the time I wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of some MTB trails in the Luberon area? I'm staying near Gordes.

I don't seem to be able to find anything other than vineyard tour type rides, was hoping for something a bit more XC/Trail, happy to drive a bit to get to the trail head if there's nothing nearby

There must be a trail off the top of the Ventoux right?

Yes there is; there are some details here: http://www.clubcinglesventoux.org/en/roads/4-forest-road.html

Cant help further I'm afraid, I've only ever taken a road bike to Provence.
