4 km from Sorgues, 5 km from Entraigues sur la Sorgue, 6 km from Courthézon, 8 km from Châteauneuf du Pape, 9 km from Sarrians, 11 km from Monteux, 12 km from Loriol du Comtat The 'city of the seven rivers' as Bédarrides is known, is a beautifully refreshing venue during the summer months and is particularly reputed with fishermen. The river Ouvèze is ideal for swimmers whilst a health trail is set out on its banks. The listed church of Saint-Laurent, the gates of Sainte-Croix and of Le Comtat Venaissin, the Place du 4 septembre, the Romanesque bridge with its three arches are all attractive reminders of the village's rich history. |
