Beautiful view of the Maritime Alps

From Mangiabo!

Accessible by gravel (40mm tyres) or by mountain bike, the summit of Mont Férion (1412m) will be your finish line if you are a cyclist in full climb. Your reward will be the panoramic view: from the Alps and the Mercantour, to the Mediterranean, passing through the Paillon valley and the Var valley. You will find a watchtower which serves as a lookout to protect the massifs against fire and even houses a small refuge on the ground floor of the tower with a fireplace to warm walkers in difficulty.

The GR takes here the strange name of strategic road monte Grosso. You still have to travel seven kilometers from this point to reach this mountain. Be careful not to confuse it with the Corsican mountain which bears the same name. Here it is a small summit located overhanging the Col de Brouis. You will find there a ruined military structure built between 1921 and 1935 and belonging to the Maginot line.

To reach Mount Mangiabo from Camp d'Argent, just follow a ridge line for just over 12 kilometres. It's a real treat on the way, which literally gives you wings when you walk it. This summit, which bears an Italian-sounding name, is the last peak of the Mercantour massif that you encounter, before beginning the descent towards Sospel.

The work and the barracks of La Forca are now ruins. They were built between January 1887 and November 1891 at a time of border tension. Its purpose was to monitor the Roya valley in order to control a possible invasion of troops from Italy. They come to replace an old Sardinian redoubt. The two buildings are located at the southern summit of the Massif de L'Authion at 2,078 meters above sea level. Besides this historic site, the climb to the top is worth doing just for the magnificent views.

Very pretty walk, on this strategic route leading to the work of Monte Grosso, and to the mountain of the same name.

Mont Férion (1,412 m) dominates the village of Levens. This is the highest point of the Férion range. The building at the top is a necessary DFCI watchtower due to the fire tendency in the area.
