    Beautiful hike to the ruins of the Barrage de Malpasset.

    This is a former dam that suddenly and completely collapsed on the night of December 2, 1959.

    The flood destroyed several villages and cost 423 people their lives.

      December 2, 1959: rupture of the Fréjus drinking water reservoir: the Malpasset dam... 428 victims.
      The site is worth the detour to see the power of the water...
