Park in the car park at the Bois de la Gaillarde cemetery
(S/E) Head towards the Bois de la Gaillarde information kiosk located near the crossroads, below the cemetery.
(1) Opposite the kiosk, there is a wooden signpost indicating "Le Dolmen". Take this path, which starts immediately on the left, as the original path has been damaged by a storm.
(2) Turn right and follow the uphill track.
(3) Take the path on your left that follows the contour line through the arbutus trees.
(4) Turn right onto the dolmen path and you will come to a barrier and a crossroads.
(5) Continue straight ahead until you reach the tarmac road. Turn left onto Boulevard des Gaulois. Take care with the traffic, even though the area is quiet. Continue to the next road junction.
(6) Turn left onto the carriageway, walk about 50 metres and turn right at the "Dolmen" sign. The path climbs up to the megalithic tomb.
(7) Turn around and take the carriageway back to the crossroads.
(6) Take the path on the right, which is slightly below the road and leads to the barrier and the crossroads of the paths you passed earlier.
(5) Continue straight ahead.
(8) At this crossroads, turn left.
(9) Turn right/left and continue along the path to reach a major crossroads.
(10) Leave all the tracks and take the path opposite, heading due west. Stay on this path, walk alongside the imposing water tower and continue to the Col de Bougnon road.
(11) Be careful when crossing the busy road. Take the F232 track opposite, called Cabasse.
(12) At the pine tree-shaped telephone antenna, turn right onto the path at the foot of the antenna.
(13) At this crossroads, turn right and continue until you reach the road.
(14) Cross it with extreme caution and continue straight ahead on the DFCI track called "Petites Maures". At the top of the hill, continue straight ahead on the track that descends. At the barrier, stay on the left track that runs alongside a small marsh. You will reach a three-way junction.
(15) Turn left. Walk past the first cistern and follow the narrow path parallel to the track on your right. Pass a second cistern and continue in the same direction to reach the viewpoint.
(16) Remarkable view of Les Avelans with Fréjus on one side and the Plaine des Maures on the other. Turn around and descend slightly to the left to reach the nearby track. Cross it: a wooden sign points you towards "La Gaillarde". Follow the descending path and at the next crossroads, turn left.
(17) At the entrance to the residential area, turn right at 180°. Continue along this descending path until you reach a bend in the track. Continue straight ahead until you reach the next crossroads with the sign for "les petites Maures".
(18) Take the overgrown track that starts just to the left of the sign. This track, lined with arbutus trees, leads directly back to the cemetery, but disappears just before you get there. Go down the small hill, pass to the left of the cemetery and return to the car park where you started (S/E).
