The Luberon is a massif with a thousand metres of relief in it, and almost everything worth knowing about the place is a consequence of that number. So this guide is filed by height.
Conventional travel sites sort by subject: villages here, food there, walks in a third box. That works for a flat place. It does not work here, where the same subject behaves completely differently at 200 m and at 700 m — the vine ripens three weeks apart, the frost holds a month longer, the café shuts for the winter or it does not. Filing by altitude puts the pieces that actually belong together next to each other, and it gives every article an address: a band, a number, and a line explaining why it sits there.
What this is not
It is not a news wire. The domain says news; the site is a standing guide, and nothing on it is dated, because nothing on it should expire. It is not a tourist board: no official status, no bookings, no accommodation listings, no rankings. And it is not a timetable — you will not find prices, opening hours or market days stated as fact here, because a wrong market day sends you across the massif for nothing. Where a rhythm matters, we describe the rhythm.
Language
The site is written in English throughout. Place names keep their French spelling, and a French word appears only where it is the right word — a dish, a landform, a technique — glossed in English the first time it is used.
Corrections
Heights are the site's own filing, taken as a working figure for the ground a piece is about rather than a survey reading of a summit. If something here is wrong, we would rather know: the contact page says how.
