This circular hike, starting from the Pont de l'Estéron, takes you along this pretty river with its turquoise waters before climbing into the forest alongside a small stream and joining small isolated roads towards the Chapelle Sainte-Marguerite (17th century).
The descent is via a pretty path overlooking the Estéron, offering some beautiful views towards the Plaine du Var at the end.

Departure from Gilette (Alpes-Maritimes)
A very beautiful walk, which can be started either from La Clave (Le Broc) or from Gilette.
It passes through varied landscapes and offers a chance to explore the Pre-Alps... whilst passing very close to the Estéron
We have chosen to start this route with the climb to Gilette from La Clave to avoid this difficulty at the end of the hike.
You’ll easily be able to reach the river on three occasions throughout this hike.
