Cette promenade vous surprendra par ses points de vue sur l’ensemble des principaux massifs Provençaux. Vous y découvrirez, perché sur un pilon rocheux au pied d’une falaise, les ruines d’un vieux village abandonné au XVIIème siècle, ainsi qu’une jolie chapelle en pierre de taille.

Mettez de bonnes chaussures, le terrain étant très accidenté.
