  • You'll fall under the spell of this secluded mountain setting and a medieval village clinging to the rock, with a beautiful view over the Verdon. The hamlets of Encastel (or at least its remains) and Entreverge are also well worth a visit.

  • Go up above the Giraud cistern and turn left. Continue for 200 m and turn right following the ‘’Tour de Breis’’ arrow sign. Climb the first set of wooden steps, turn left, then 10 m further on, turn right and climb another set of wooden steps. Follow the path, then turn left onto a track which becomes a path. Turn left and continue for 1 km. Cross the bend and continue as far as a crossroads. Go straight downhill. At the crossroads, turn left onto the GR®49 and continue as far as the hamlet...

At the crossroads, turn left onto the GR®49 and continue as far as the hamlet of Entreverges. Go through the hamlet as far as the ‘’Entreverges’’ arrow sign, then follow the direction for Trigance. Turn left onto a plateau. Near a spring, cross a muddy, rocky stream for about 100 m (active in rain!), then continue on the path. Go down the track, turn left passing the oratory, then take the same route back to the village.
