Scenic view on Sainte-Agnès

Highlight • Other

On this path, the view of Sainte-Agnès is remarkable.

Above all, the nickname of the GR 51 "Balcony of the Mediterranean" takes on its full meaning here.

Famed as a training hill, exactly where the pros commence their battle with the clock on the ‘classic’ start is a constant cause of debate. Regardless of how long it …

Superb hike, of reasonable distance; it is nevertheless quite difficult.
I recommend poles and good shoes.
The spots you will find there are majestic.
This outing is one of my favorites around Saint Agnès, despite the 2.5 kilometers of tarmac that connects the end of the Baussons trail to the Col de la Madonne.

Magnificent hike starting from St Agnes by the Col de la Madone, certain difficulties of the route require concentration in adequacy of the terrain,
The views are breathtaking and 360 degrees when reaching the top is the reward.
However, bring good shoes and appropriate clothing for the season.
