Family trail and treasure hunt in the woods of Fox-Amphoux on the theme of fantasy. Car park and departure point at the intersection of the RD 32 and RD 232. GPS coordinates of the departure point: 43.580734 / 6.105648
(S/E) The sign showing the route is located in the car park, but the actual starting point for the walk is a few metres to your left at the side of the road (RD32). Go through the gate, which indicates that you are entering a fantasy world. Then, throughout the walk, follow the yellow markings indicating thePR® Provence Verte et Verdon "La forêt de Fox-Amphoux" (Fox-Amphoux Forest). At certain intersections, look up into the trees to find Aguia, your guide.
(1) At the well, take the path on the right, as indicated by Aguia and the yellow markings. At the next intersection, turn right again. On the left, the small path that you should not take leads to a field. You will also notice wooden engraved signs made by the municipality of Fox-Amphoux at various points along the route. These will help you find your way.
(2) You will soon come to a road, the RD13. Just before it, turn left and take the path that runs alongside it. The road will then be on your right.
(3) The circuit passes in front of the cisterns, which are used to protect the forest against fires. Then, a huge oak tree with a yellow marker next to a picnic table at the side of the road indicates that you should take the second path on the left through the woods. Aguia is also present. At the next junction, turn left again. You are now on a forest fire defence track leading to the Chapel of Saint-Ulphar. The entrance to the track, marked in yellow, is indicated by a B0 "B zero" sign prohibiting traffic.
(4) You will arrive at the Saint-Ulphar Chapel. At the chapel, Aguia and the yellow markings indicate that you should go straight ahead at the intersection. You are now just over halfway along the route.
(5) At this point, turn left after the wooden barrier. You will soon enter an area called Estagnon or "little pond".
At the exit of the Estagnon, turn right, still following the markings. One last surprise awaits you at the final intersection. Continue straight ahead, heading to the right.
You will soon arrive at the car park (S/E).
