Sault is an old fortified village perched along the top of a high ridge overlooking a wide valley, with large lavender fields
spread out below to the south and west. A long multi-arched road bridge
crosses the tiny La Croc stream below, past the southeast end of the
village. Along with the ancient buildings lining the high ridge are the
remains of a huge feudal castle.
The fields around Sault sit in a low area surrounded by mountains: the Ventoux
and the Lure mountains range across the northwest and northeast, and
the Plateau de Vaucluse is spread out across the south. Just a few
kilometers out of the village to the southwest are the deep canyons of
the Gorges de la Nesque.
