The walk starts from the Tête de Chien car park at the end of Route de la Tête de Chien coming from La Turbie.
(S/E) Head south up Route de la Tête de Chien and pass through a barrier restricting access to pedestrians.
(1) Cross the road at marker 604 and take the path on the left, following the sign for "Tour de la Tête de Chien" (yellow markings). At the junction with a tarmac road, turn right and follow it for a few dozen metres, negotiating the bend. At the gate of the CNET Experimental Centre, take the path on the left (marker 603): magnificent view of Monaco and the coastline as far as Italy. Descend the fairly steep path, which winds around a few bends.
(2) Turn right, heading south, at marker 602. At the first bend, take the barely visible path on the right marked with a red cross to admire the climbing site in the Gentil sector, particularly "Big Ben", the enormous excavation in the cliff.
(3) Retrace your steps and continue south on the path.
(4) At marker 612, leave the main path and take a small path that climbs to the right.
(5) At the crossroads, take the path that descends to the left. At the next crossroads, turn right to follow a slightly marked but easy balcony path: magnificent view of the coastline.
(6) Turn right onto a short, slightly steep path that avoids having to go along the road. After a few metres, turn right again to rejoin the main path that runs alongside the Loubière climbing site.
(7) At marker 606, turn left towards Tête de Chien. Continue climbing to reach the fort's casemates and caves , then the viewpoint with its 180° panorama.
(8) From there, retrace your steps northwards to rejoin the road after passing through a small tunnel. Continue straight ahead.
(1) Stay on the road to retrace your steps and return to the car park (S/E).
