The Alpilles massif has constantly evolved over 135 million years, to become what it is today. These limestone crests, bordered by the GR®6, date from the Cretaceous and appeared about 70 million years before J.-C. They dominate the Petite Crau. The Montagnette massif, is observed to the north-east, as well as further, Mont Ventoux, which rises to 1912 m of altitude. To the south, there is a wide view of the Alpilles massif.
