    Follow the avenue Jean Médecin until the place de la Cabraïa. Go up the rue Auda, until its junction with the road of Nice. You cross the bridge on the railway track and, after following the west wall of the cemetery, you cross the road and take to the right a white and red marked path. Barely visible at the start, it rises quickly in short laces up to a small plateau planted with olive trees: La Coletta (about 15 mn.) There, the path widens and gets to a paved road that one takes to the left, going down, a few hundred meters. You arrive at a median strip, to the left of the road, where you take a path( marked in yellow) that runs through the pines. One soon joins in a bend of the road a path that bypasses a turret of the fort and descends towards the ground
