Rocky Trail With Lake View – Parc Naturel Régional du Verdon

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

21.0 km

This path which starts from the hamlet of La Baume and goes to the village of Cheiron is very pleasant. Its first part is fluid, its second part is more technical.

It offers some very beautiful views along the way.

The Castillon dam was commissioned in 1948. With its 95 meters high and 200 meters wide, it is rather imposing! It also offers a great view of the Verdon.

The trails are sometimes very demanding. Especially uphill there you go in the area S3 to S4-.
I pushed up the mountain to a total of 400 m but not every now and then 50 to 100 m in one go
Magnificent tour definitely worth you. 😎👍😅
