Access: from Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, head towards Les Baux-de-Provence via Avenue Van Gogh and, after a small crossroads (well before Les Antiques), take the road on the right that leads to Lac des Peirou and its dam (signposted). Go to the end of the tarmac road and park on the right under the pine trees, in the bend that leads to the dam.
White and redGR®® markings
(S/E) With your back to the direction you came from, take the track that starts opposite (AL 113 - see practical information). Go through a gate, walk along a property wall (Mas de Gros on the map) and continue straight ahead. Stay on this main track, ignoring all the turnings on the right. The track climbs gradually and leads to a crossroads.
(1) Continue to the right towards Les Baux. Shortly afterwards, ignore a small path that descends to the right and then, at a bend, a path that climbs to the right (it joins the track we are on a little further on, but we take the track option). Stay on this track, which is always markedGR®®), until the view opens up to the right towards the north, including Lac du Peirou and the village of Saint-Rémy. At this point, the track has been widened to allow fire engines to turn around. Be very careful because, at this point, you need to descend to the left via a path marked by a small cairn slightly below the track.
There are no official markings, but there are green dots left by mountain bikers.
(2) Descend via this path, which leads to a track below: the Lombards track.
YellowPR®® markings (not very prominent)
(3) Turn right and stay on this track for about 1.5 km. It leads to a larger track (actually theGR®®6that we left earlier). This intersection is marked by a large cairn.
GR®® markings (white and red)
(4) Turn right and stay on this main track until you reach an intersection with another track (AL112 marker) starting at a small gap. Here you will find a viewpoint over the La Caume plateau.
No markings
(5) Take this track on the left and ignore all the paths on either side. Further on, ignore a track on the left at an underground cistern (no. 285 - Servières). Continue straight ahead. The track makes a large circular loop that can be cut off at the cistern, but the slope is steep and the hike is not very long, so there is no point in shortening it. Stay on this main track, ignoring all the paths on the right and left, to reach the small access road to the dam.
YellowPR®® markings
(6) Turn right to reach the car park. Note that well before the road, you can see your car park below. There are several paths for those in a hurry that can take you there (S/E).
