Hiking

This small chapel dates from the 19th century. From there, we have a great view of the lower Verdon gorges.

Hiking

Shady rest area and one of the few points from which you can at least see a little bit of the gorge.

We started from the end of the trail on the old canal. Very steep and difficult way. At the chapel we read that this way is closed. Great! At the chapel many people are sitting and resting. The climb was worth it!
