Mercantour 06

Based in Cabris, at the southern gateway to the Parc naturel Régional des Préalpes d'Azur, Thomas Patyn surveys the region's great natural spaces, from the Mercantour to the Alpilles. He belongs to that category of passionate professionals who provide hikers with multiple keys to understanding the identity of each territory. He offers a sensitive reading of landscapes, deciphers the imprint of human activity, and evokes traditions and trades.
One of his outings sheds particular light on the work of the fire lookouts. Scrutinizing the horizon from strategic positions and understanding the vital role played by fire lookouts in protecting our forests from fire is the attraction of this unexpected program.
