> STARTING POINT
GPS coordinates: 43.566739, 6.692564
Town hall car park - Saint Paul en Forêt

> ROUTE
This route starts in Saint-Paul-en-Forêt, a village on the edge of the Estérel massif entirely dedicated to nature with its botanical trail around Lake Rioutard, its belt of pine, white oak and cork oak trees, the shaded banks of the Endre, and the majestic Lake Méaulx.
From the welcoming town hall square and its large car park, the circuit sets off along the RD55, passing in front of the 18th-century church and the square fountain, before plunging into the coolness of the Endre valley next to the Royal Forest.
The slope is steep and the descent rapid to the Endre bridge, then, as expected, the route climbs again until it crosses the RD562 at km 5.2.
You then turn left, but you must take great care when crossing the right-hand lane as visibility on the left is limited: caution is advised!
One hill further on and you leave the RD562 on the right to cross the hamlet of Brovèsen-Seillans (km 5.8) where you will find the workshops of Maître Savonitto (manufacturer of natural soaps, home fragrances, etc.) and the pretty fountain-wash house moved from the original village of Brovès...
