Starting point to reach the easy "Cima del Bosco" at the top you will find a votive chapel that also serves as a bivouac, an excellent peak on which to admire the sunset in all seasons.

Granges Chabaud Chapel and Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

This place is definitely worth a visit, easily reachable thanks to the dirt road. Almost all the buildings are in a state of abandonment and unsafe, only the little church is completely redone and clearly visible on its hill

Apparently it is no longer allowed to drive and park in Rhuilles if you are not a resident, so you have to start 2 km before, at the beginning of the dirt road

Nice excursion. I recommend the use of poles especially to better manage the descent. On my way back, not having them, I preferred to go down in the middle of the pastures following the border line for a while and then travel along the valley floor.
