Travel Information

To get there, you can drive from Avignon towards Bonnieux and then follow the signs to Lacoste. The village is easy to reach by car but in summer it can get crowded very early. You can either park at the GPS pin and walk to the castle (or fly from the parking) or try to find another parking spot in the village.
