Robion

Robion is a small medieval village beautifully situated at the foot of the Lubéron mountain range in the Vaucluse department. Robion is part of the Parc Naturel Régional du Lubéron, a huge protected national park covering more than 100,000 hectares. It's an unspoilt area, perfect for hiking. A holiday in Robion offers excellent opportunities for relaxation in the very scenic surroundings and/or an exciting activity holiday with sports and interesting excursions. Robion and the surrounding area offers a wide range of sports activities including cycling, climbing, paragliding, horse riding and golf.

Robion is a typical Provençal mountain village with lots of charm. Robion offers narrow alleys, steep cobbled streets, old stone houses, small shady squares, a beautiful old fountain surrounded by giant plane trees and a large old Romanesque church with a beautiful bell tower.

In the upper part of the old town you'll find the remains of the old city walls that once surrounded the village.

Robion is also known for its very fine open-air theatre. This theatre is mainly known for its exceptional acoustics. Every year in July and August, the theatre and music festival takes place.
