Departure from Saint-Raphaël (Var) (Var)
The start of the hike involves regularly leaving the path to follow the shoreline and these reddish rocks as closely as possible. With so many views of the coastline, there are plenty of places to stop. The route around the village of Cap Estérel takes you up a little, offering a panoramic view of Dramont and Île d’Or.The fact that the Provence landings took place here in 1944 is down to the presence of these quarries; this fascinating information is provided on information boards.

Departure from Saint-Raphaël (Var) (Var)
Connecting the two ports of Saint-Raphaël via the eastern coastal path is said to be one of the most beautiful coastal routes on the French Riviera. While the charm of this walk is undeniable, it is important to note that it is challenging and not accessible to everyone. There is no real path, facilities are minimal, and the route often resembles a beautiful scramble among the rocks. But while it is possible to get your feet wet if you misjudge the time it takes to cross certain passages at the mercy of a playful wave, there is no risk of getting lost as the yellow markings are excellent. And what a joy it is to look out over the entire route and beyond from the top of Le Dramont.
Please note that part of the Dramont bypass is currently impassable due to a landslide. Use the nearby forest paths to reach the tip of Camp Long.
