> ITINERARY
Climb the staircase leading to the chapel in the rock. Follow the path to the fountain (drinking spring water). Take the footpath on the right for 50 m, then take the path that climbs up on the left.
Continue for 800 m to the next junction. Don't turn left, but continue straight on towards the Col du Saint-Pilon (281 m).

At the pass, turn left and then follow the path on the right, following the yellow markings until you reach the Cabrier rock pass. From here, you can see the forest road you are about to join. You arrive on the small road opposite the Rocher de Saint-Barthélemy.

Turn left onto the road and follow it for 1 km.

Then take the path on your left, downhill towards the railway line.

At the bottom of the descent, take the path up on your left, which is always marked in yellow.

If you continue along this path, you'll come across several junctions. Keep following the yellow markings, which will take you up for 3.3 km to the Cap Roux pass.

At the Col, take the path on the right for 500 m. You will come to a junction where you can turn left (round trip) to reach the viewpoint and orientation table. This will take you to a height of 453 metres. This is the opportune moment to enjoy a magnificent view of the Mediterranean, from Cannes to Cap Camarat. Go back down this part of the path.

At the crossroads, turn left and follow the yellow signposted path (do not take the blue path) back to the car park.

Note: On the way back, you can walk to the chapel of the Saint-Honorat grotto (40 minutes round trip). To do this, take the path on the left, 60 metres before the car park. This climb is not recommended if you suffer from vertigo.

> Warning! Some aerial passages and paths in the scree.
