Hiking - Esterel - in the footsteps of St Honorat

The proposed hike is a 10km loop with 615m of positive ascent around the Pic du Cap Roux (453m) in the magnificent Massif de l'Estérel.We'll cover the geological features of the place, its flora and its history.


  • Convivial Ambiance
  • Magnificent panoramas
  • An unusual route off the beaten track

On the programme

After a start near the sea, we'll gradually rise amid the volcanic rocks that characterize the l'Estérel massif. Rhyolites and ignimbrites that erupted between -285 and -245Ma (Permian) form an atypical relief that we'll try to explain. But here it's above all the intensity of the colors, the contrast between the azure blue of the Mediterranean and the ochre rock, glowing red, that strikes and enchants the passing stroller. A sensory hike that's a feast for the eyes without requiring too much effort. We follow in the footsteps of Saint Honorat, who took refuge here in a cave and made it a place of veneration. You can visit these remains...The aim here is to offer you a guided hike, more than a simple stroll, combining physical effort, geology and history.
