This challenging walk allows you to explore some of the features of these hills overlooking Châteauvallon—whose silhouette is ever-present when you live in the western Var—including the Croupatier and the Bau de Quatre Aures. This route shares a few sections with another walk that includes the Bau, but in the opposite direction, and extends partly along the northern slope towards Le Broussan. Furthermore, we have chosen to take the Pas de la Cavale on the way up and make this the starting point of our route.

This "diagonal route through the Maures" takes us through magnificent Provençal landscapes. A varied, wild vegetation and exceptional views punctuate this route. This adventure begins in Hyères (former Templar commandery) and ends in Collobrières (capital of the Maures) during the first stage.
