Climb to the 3rd highest peak of the Var to enjoy breathtaking views.

Follow the GR® on the right of the parking. Then go left into the forest. When you reach a flat, more cleared section, at the crossroads, continue straight ahead and then slightly to the left. Continue climbing through the woods. Reach the first ridge and enjoy the view of the Gorges. Continue to the right. At the second crossroads, leave the path on the left, which leads down to the Vaumale cirque and continue to the right. Continue through a sinkhole, then come to a second sinkhole and follow right to the top of the Grand Margès – Be careful, there is a steep passage towards the top! At the top, take a deep breath of fresh air and admire the landscape. Finally, turn around and take the same route back down to the village - Be careful, there are tricky and slippery sections in this direction!
