Park in the car park on the right just before the entrance to the village.
(S/E) Start by crossing this quiet little village via Rue des Templiers. There are a few information boards along the way. Reach the Remparts gate, known as the Gourdane gate.
(1) Take the paved slanting street that descends to the left (south-west). Pass right next to a huge water tank and then reach a road.
(2) Follow it westwards. You will soon come to the11th-century Chapelle de la Trinité chapel.
Continue along the road until you reach a crossroads.
(3) Continue straight ahead, then quickly take the track on the left heading west. Follow it until you reach a steep descent leading to the hamlet of Boisset.
(4) Cross it and, at the exit, slightly to the left, you will see a wash house and its spring. Continue along the road heading due north. Take the bridge over the Canal de Provence.
(5) Immediately after the bridge, take the track on the right heading east.
Caution: Do not walk along the edge of the canal, as it is prohibited and very dangerous.
Walk along the track below the embankment. A little further on, do not take the bridge on the right, but continue along the track. It then passes over a huge rusty pipe, which is the old Verdon canal. Leave a track on the right. Cross another bridge.
(6) Take a track on the left heading north-north-east which climbs and rejoins the large pipe. Stay on this track. It passes over the mouth of the Canal de Provence and then enters the forest.
Further on, you will come to a somewhat chaotic crossroads of tracks.
(7) Take the track opposite to the north-east, then enter a sort of housing estate of isolated houses. Stay on Chemin des Tanes until you reach a sort of roundabout. After a sharp left turn, you will come to a crossroads with a track.
(8) Leave the road and take the track on the right, which climbs into the woods in a south-easterly direction. The rutted path climbs into the woods and then into open country.
Once at the top, you will reach a field on the edge of a hamlet. On the track, take a few steps to the right, towards the west, to reach a crossroads of paths.
(9) Take the path on the left, which descends southwards along the outer wall of a farm building. Pass through the undergrowth to reach the water treatment plant. Take the track on the left to reach a small road. Turn right onto this road. You will arrive at the Frontel crossroads.
(10) Turn left onto the path that starts at the edge of a house. This fairly wide, stony medieval path climbs in long hairpin bends. After the first right-hand bend, you will reach the fountain and spring that supplied the village (information panel).
(11) Stay on this wide path. After several hairpin bends, you will arrive at a crossroads with a large cross.
(12) Take the path on the left, heading south-east. Pass under the remains of a gate in the ramparts and you will come out at the cemetery and church. From there, turn left to return to the car park where you started (S/E).
