Eygalières is a small village on a hill in the Alpilles, not far from Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. There’s a quiet charm to this special village, though it’s often overlooked for the more well-known. The views from the summit are spectacular Eyglières making it a favorite resting point for hikers and bikers taking advantage of the scenic trails through nearby olive groves and vineyards.
Eygalières is a village filled with store fronts and beautiful stone houses, most with a touch of greenery. The Village has the old church on the crest, La Chapelle des Pénitents. Friday is market day in Eygalières. This very manageable market is filled with fresh produce, bread, fabrics, clothing, seafood, cheese, cured meats, local jams and paella made on site. The feel is definitively and beautifully local- vendors and residents jovially sharing wine, eating flan and sampling cheese as early as 10am. Just outside the village is a spectacular tree-lined entrance to Domaine de Valdition. There is also a 7th century Roman Chapelle de Saint Sixte, located on the Route d’Orgon between Eygalières and the National Route 7
