Hiking - PLAN D'AUPS SAINTE-BAUME - From the Sentier Merveilleux to the Oratoire de Miette
A hike for all abilities, discovering forest and karst environments with the Sainte-Baume mountain as a backdrop.
Set out on the Sentier Merveilleux to discover the various tree species of the legendary Sainte-Baume forest. Take the time to enjoy its lush nature and listen to the sounds of the forest before reaching more open limestone environments offering an exceptional view over the entire mountain. Join the illustrious Chemin des Roys at the Oratoire de Miette, where legend and landscape await. Both intimate and panoramic, this walk will not disappoint. Breathe it in, you are in Sainte-Baume!
In summer, the site is at high risk of fire. For this reason, access is regulated from 21 June to 20 September. Check the access conditions for the forest areas, which are updated daily on the Var prefecture website.A flock and livestock guardian dogs may be present along this hike: know how to react! Go around the flock as widely as possible. If a dog approaches, stop, do not stare at it, do not brandish your poles, and speak to it calmly while you wait for it to identify you.
