Park at the end of the Vallon de la Rague. No difficulty finding a parking space, but be aware that the road is in poor condition and ends in a cul-de-sac.
(S/E) Take a track on the left (when facing away from the sea) and head south-west.
(1) At the first fork, keep to the right (leave the track on the left, which will be the return route). Head generally south, keeping the Rague on your right.
(2) Further on, at another Fork in the road, turn right, cross the Rague and head slightly uphill. On a flat section, turn left. Climb and follow the track which, further on, begins a descent to the junction with another track.
(3) Then follow the track to the left. Climb steadily up to the Col de la Cadière.
(4) Continue left (south-east) on a tarmac track. Stay on this track, which climbs gently, to the Col Notre-Dame (stunning view of the Mediterranean).
(5) Then head left towards the Col du Trayas. The track descends and reaches a junction (with a wayside shrine on the embankment to the left).
(6) Turn left and continue over the undulating terrain.
(7) At the Col du Trayas, take the track on the right and follow it to the Col des Monges.
(8) Turn sharply right and follow a track that descends easily to the Col de Théoule (ignore all side paths).
(9) Continue along the track opposite. Ignore theGR®51, which branches off to the left onto a path, and stay on the track.
(10) Continue along the track which theGR® has joined. Pass through a gate and, at the Fork in the road, turn left onto Rue Jean-Baptiste Pastor.
(11) At the roundabout, continue along Avenue Charles Dahon. Cross the junction and head for the beach.
(12) Turn left and head towards the harbour, continuing on to the Harbour Master’s Office.
(13) Just after a few steps, turn left and go through the tunnel under the railway line. Continue along Rue du Languedoc.
(14) At the junction, turn left and head steeply uphill. Walk through the eucalyptus trees to reach the small pass of Collet de l'Autel.
(15) Then veer right, go through a gate and follow a track.
(16) You’ll come out onto another track; follow it to the right and pass a water tank.
(17) At the crossroads (water tank), turn left onto a track heading downhill. After several bends, you will reach the junction you passed at the very start of the walk.
(1) Turn right and you will quickly reach the starting point (S/E).
