At the bottom of the path, turn immediately left, between the houses and the stone walls. This path goes to Val d'Aubert (1.4 km).
Cross the hamlet and continue on the path (asphalted from there) for about 5 km, passing through Les Vieilles Sinières, Les Sinières, to the RD 558 road (La Garde-Freinet / Grimaud). At the Camp Vif crossroads, hike 6 joins hike 3.
Cross the RD 558 and go down the small path between the two guard rails. It joins the small road that returns to the village (Chemin du Refren). Return to the village, passing the Chapelle St.-Eloi.
