The departure point is the Cuillerets car park, located on the Siou Blanc forest road, about 8 km from the Signes road (D2).
(S/E) Cross the road and take the path that heads west and runs alongside it.
(1) After about 250 m, turn right onto a PR® trail that enters the undergrowth. You will reach a three-way junction.
(2) Turn left, as the other path is blocked by a pond.
(3) Take the path on the right at this intersection to rejoin the other PR®.
(4) Turn left. Walk about 600 metres to another crossroads.
(5) Take the path on the right at this junction and walk for about 1 km. This section offers some views of La Ciotat Bay.
(6) Turn left towards the summit of the day. Continue on the GR®. Pass the Colle de la Fède, which offers very few views, and continue.
(7) At this point (Limate sighting point), hikers are treated to a beautiful panorama. Enjoy the view and follow the trail marked in yellow or with blue dots, indicating a tricky descent, which follows the edge of the cliff.
(8) At the bottom of this difficult descent, turn right, staying on the GR® 51, and continue for about 1,800 metres, ignoring a first turn-off to the right and then another to the left.
(9) Descend to the right onto a path that avoids an extra 150 m on this track and quickly rejoins it.
(10) Turn right and head west. Karstic caves, which are generally protected, line the track.
(11) At the cistern, go up to the right.
(12) Ignore the path on the right and continue straight ahead until you reach the next junction marked by a post.
(13) Turn left and walk for about 1,500 metres until you reach the road.
(14) Take a look at the Abîme des Morts, which is about a hundred metres to the left, below the road on the right. Retrace your steps and follow the path that runs alongside the road to the car park. The path disappears after an S-bend in the road; follow the road carefully to the Cuillerets car park (S/E).
