Parking de la Pointe de l'Observatoire, 83700 Saint-Raphaël
The rock of Saint-Barthélémy offers the beautifully contrasting colours of the French Riviera's lovely blue sky and the red rocks of the Estérel massif.
> ACCESS By car from Agay: Take the seafront road towards Agay, then stay on the seafront on the RD559 towards Cannes on the road known as the "Route de la Corniche d'Or". 7 km after Agay, park at the Pointe de l'Observatoire car park. > STARTING POINT GPS coordinates: 43.449364098044086, 6.917915188035244 Pointe de l'Observatoire car park > ITINERARY Reach the small forestry building (take care when crossing the road) and go through the barrier to take the tarmac track, which is closed to cars. The trail climbs steadily towards the Rocher St Barthélémy for 2 km, with spectacular views of the sea, the red rocks of the Estérel and the peaks of Cap Roux. Take the same route back. It is possible to extend the walk past the rock for a 3 km round trip, continuing on the road that overlooks it as far as the Plateau d'Anthéor barrier. > Be prepared: in summer, when the weather is hot and the mistral is blowing, the Massif may be closed due to the risk of fire. See the "practical information" section for daily updates.
