Hiking Tour of Mont Gros
14 km

Hiking Tour of Mont Gros

A rounded peak surrounded by limestone bars with peaks, Mont Gros abruptly dominates the bay of Roquebrune and the vast beach of Cabbé where paragliders and hang gliders find an ideal landing ground. From the Col de la Coupière (440 m), head south up the DFCI Trois Monts track (GR 51) before soon turning left onto the small diverticulum known as the "Rossignola"; this brings you to a significant bend in the road where you leave the track once again for the path that rises up the ubac of Mont Gros to a small collet located just above the nearby summit. Make a short return journey to the take-off area to admire the panorama of the summit of Mont Gros (686 m) and the prowess of the "libéristes" on their way to the beach of Cabbé, the ideal landing area. From the collet of Mont Gros, descend due south along a good path facing the sea on the generously reforested adret; when you reach the Fenouil houses, turn left to cross the eastern side of Mont Gros horizontally. A final climb through a coppice of yew trees takes you back to a small pass where you can follow the same route as before; you can easily reach the Coupière pass by the path, then the track followed on the way up. Road access From the N.7 at Cap Martin, go up the D.51 road towards La Turbie for 2.5 km. On the inside of a large curve, turn right onto the D.50 road leading to Gorbio; follow this road for 1 km and then turn left onto the narrow and steep asphalt path of La Coupière which leads to the car park of the pass (440 m).

Hiking Castellar-Menton via Balmetta and Baousset
19 km

Hiking Castellar-Menton via Balmetta and Baousset

An easy hike, almost entirely downhill. After some beautiful passages in the forest, the itinerary leads to Super-Garavan and continues in the direction of the old town of Menton, with magnificent views over the bay of Garavan and the Gulf of Peace. From the car park at the entrance to the village, head towards the Saint-Sébastien chapel (marker 416) and, at the first intersection, turn right downhill in front of the school (marker 145). The road then climbs slightly before reaching a new intersection shortly after the Saint-Roch chapel. Turn right onto the road leading downhill towards Menton (marker 414 Menton by Balmetta and Baousset). After a few metres, the route, signposted and marked by a yellow rectangle, goes off to the left and flat. You then lose altitude along a small path with superb views, skirting some beautiful properties. Once past the Maglioc ravine, the route runs alongside an imposing wall that obscures the view of a magnificent property. Shortly afterwards, this path joins a concrete track near the motorway and passes through a completely painted tunnel at the end of which you come out onto the road. Go up to the right and turn left at the first intersection onto the road to Colle Supérieure (sign), in the direction of the old town. The road climbs steeply at first and then descends through the houses, passing the Trabuquet cemetery. After a few steps downhill, you reach a crossroads with the old Menton cemetery opposite, at the top of the old town. There, on this small square, turn left into the small alley that runs alongside the cemetery. Then, by a succession of stairs, reach the Saint-Michel basilica in Menton.

Hiking Loop of Mount Carpano and Pplan du Lion
20 km

Hiking Loop of Mount Carpano and Pplan du Lion

Beautiful hike with panoramic views. In spring you will enjoy the scents of Mediterranean vegetation. Medium difficulty. Ideal for families, if you stop at Plan du Lion, a huge flat herbaceous area that dominates the coastline. As it is a loop, it can be walked in the direction of Castellar, chapelle Saint-Sébastien, piste de l'Orméa, or in the direction of Castellar, route des Granges St. Paul, plan du Lion. From the cemetery car park (place de l'Armée des Alpes), go up the small road of the Col St-Bernard which rises steeply above the village; leave it shortly afterwards to take the Orméa track on the right, which serves several residences. Once you have reached the last of the well-tended countryside, the track becomes a paved path with many twists and turns leading to the GR 51 - GR 52 crossroads, at the foot of the Berceau pass. Then cross to the right (south) the vast panoramic plateau that stretches from Plan du Lion to Plan de Leuze until you find on the left the path that culminates at Mount Carpano (773 m) on the border ridge. After this short round trip, start the descent towards the St-Paul barns (caution, steep path) and follow on the right the wide DFCI (forest fire protection) track which climbs slightly to the water basins before descending gently towards Castellar. At the level of the stadium, a small asphalt road leads quickly back to the entrance of the village where you are greeted by the chapel of St-Roch (restored in 2000), then a little further upstream by the chapel of St-Sébastien (14th century) which watches over the cemetery.
