Sentier du Bastidon
478 m

Sentier du Bastidon

Contrast the overheated garrigue of the Verdon with the cool, shady forest of the Barbin ubac, and you'll be walking through a wild and grandiose landscape. On leaving the village in the direction of Moustiers, take the track on the left just before the Bourbon campsite (GR4 towards La Maline). Join the Route des Crêtes, then follow it to the right for about 250 m. At the pumping station, take the track on the right towards Bonlau. Pass behind the building. After the well, go downhill on the left. Follow the Route des Crêtes for approx. 1 km. Leave the road and go right down the Bastidon path. This leads to the Mainmorte ravine. Then traverse upwards to reach a collet. Continue on the flank. After crossing the Ferné ravine, leave the gorge on the path. Cross several gullies (the tricky sections are secured!). Turn left to reach the Mairestre lookout. Go as far as the lookout, then return and follow the D952 uphill, then leave it to go straight ahead at the first bend. After a series of switchbacks, turn left into the Brusc valley. Climb a rocky gully and exit into the Grinhan ravine. Rejoin the GR®4 trail. Turn right and follow the red and white GR®4 markings. Cut the bend in the track, descend into the ravine and continue as far as the Jas de Barbin crossroads. Continue on the right-hand track through the woods (the path changes slope). Continue along the side of the Barbin mountain and, after passing a ruin and a tapped spring, wind down the path. At the foot of the hill, cross a track and join the village road below. At the oratory, continue straight on to reach La Palud-sur-Verdon.
