Difficult
Departure from Castillon (Alpes-Maritimes)
A cross-country hike through the Menton region along a little-used route, passing through wild and unspoilt areas where traces of human habitation still remain.
The route also provides access to the summit of Mont Mulacié, the second-highest peak in the Menton region, which is very little visited as it lies off the official marked trails. The view from this summit is interesting, although less spectacular than that from its neighbour, the Grammondo.

Difficult
Departure from Sospel (Alpes-Maritimes)
This is the last stage ofthe GR® 52. It is certainly not the highest in altitude, but it is difficult due to its distance and the passage of certain passes with steep ascents and descents. The Mediterranean views are splendid, especially those from the Col du Razet and Col du Berceau, which rises to 1,100 metres above the town of Menton, the end point of theGR®. You walk along the Italian border throughout the route.
Be warned, in summer this stage is very challenging due to the heat, especially the descent from the Col du Berceau.

The sixth stage ofthe GR®52, where the landscapes change dramatically. Due to its length and significant descent of nearly 2,000 metres, the stage is very difficult.
