Itinerary description

Très belle boucle qui part du parking du village vacances "Les Tournels" pour rejoindre la côte au sud-ouest en passant par de belles pistes forestières en hauteurs (164m d'altitude).

Une fois arrivés sur la côte, vous suivez le sentier des douaniers jusqu'au Cap Lardier, puis jusqu'au Cap Taillat.
Le sentier des douaniers est très physique par endroits avec de nombreuses longues volées d'escaliers mais offre de magnifiques points de vue.

Après le Cap Taillat, vous continuez de suivre encore un peu le sentier des douaniers jusqu'à la plage de l'Escalet.

Puis, vous suivez une route qui grimpe assez fort pendant environ 1km pour rejoindre les Tournels.

    Lovely trail through a diverse landscape with stunning views over the Mediterranean. The descent after the first climb is steep and along a badly passable path. The coastal path is fantastic with some small secluded beaches. Can recommend the hike.

    Some parts of this trail were closed because of fire hazard. We risked a fine of €135 each and loved every step

    Hi, thank you for your comment, can you explain which parts were closed and are these parts definitively closed during all year ?

    Thanks

    From km 2,87 till 5,95
    And from 7,61 till 11,51
    They will not be permanently closed. I asked around and it is most likely because of a combination of wind and high temperatures. Every two years there are fires on these places

    Thank you very much for this accurate explanations. I can understand, there were terrible fires the year before I published this track and some places were completely black.
