Balade au cœur des Mimosa - Tanneron

Tanneron, Land of Mimosa! A pleasant one-and-a-half-hour walk around the village to discover the village and its panoramic views, surrounded by mimosa trees from January to March. This is the easternmost commune of the Pays de Fayence in the Var department and the one featuring the most mimosa flowers, with its abundant "yellow forests". This is the largest area in France planted with both cultivated and wild mimosa. Around 1880, the mimosa, originally from Australia, made its appearance on the Côte d'Azur. In 1964, running water arrived in the village of Tanneron. Clinging to hillsides planted with mimosa, strawberries, flowers, heather, olive trees, pines, chestnut trees and cork oaks, the commune of Tanneron is made up of 22 hamlets. The cultivation of mimosa throughout the Tanneron area is now one of the finest treasures of this charming commune. These fluffy, bright yellow, fragrant little balls are beautiful to see in their natural environment. Tanneron is located at km 112 of the Route du Mimosa. > STARTING POINT Free parking in the village of Tanneron - Hikers' car park or at the church. Departure: Tourist Office GPS coordinates: 43.590748, 6.875309 > ITINERARY A - Place de la Maire Panoramic view over the Alpes-Maritimes from Grasse to the Bay of Cannes. The square is home to a typical Provencal café dating from 1865. A little anecdote: Georges Clémenceau, MP for Var, is said to have stayed there in 1889! Opposite it, a water tank dating back to 1888 supplied the townspeople before water was pumped from the River Siagne in 1964. Behind the town hall, you can admire a pretty square and its fountain, renovated in 1997. Cross the square in the direction of the war memorial, built in 1921, continue along the Chemin de la Grille and turn left into the Carreiros district. B - Carreiros district / A little history View over the Bay of Cannes and the Mediterranean Sea. Continue along a dirt track where you turn right around the Colle d'Embarque district to access the walk through the mimosa plantations. At the end of the path, rejoin the tarmac track and take the dirt track on the left, Touordam (towards the municipal stadium) as far as the junction with the DFCI track: Touordam. On the road leading to the stadium, turn right and continue along the dirt track. Follow the signposts on the track around the village towards Notre-Dame de Peygros. C - The church of Notre-Dame de Peygros The church is located at the top of the hill where the view takes in Lake Saint-Cassien, Mont-Lachens (1,714 metres), Grasse and the village of Tanneron. The small Peygros chapel, now a church, was enlarged by its inhabitants between 1839 and 1844. Everyone contributed to the renovation by making their own contribution. The chevet has a semicircular apse and the faade is flanked by the square bell tower with its two bells, financed by local residents. From the church, head towards the Hubert Rouaud school, built in 1972. At the junction with the D38, turn right towards the village.

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).
