Visit on foot to the Caramy Gorges from the car park at the Roman bridge at the entrance to the Caramy Gorges. Walk along the Caramy, past Rambert farm, then climb up on the right towards Saint-Probace Chapel and its oratories. In the forest, along the way, you will see the old charcoal kilns, an old lime oven, and then, on the karst plateau, there is a breathtaking view over the entire valley, the village, the castle, the large and the small Bessillon (old volcanoes), the Mourre de Chanier (entrances to the Verdon), the Alps in the background, Lure Mountain on the left, Sainte-Victoire Mountain and Saint-Maximin Abbey opposite, the Loube Mountain on the right and the Sainte-Baume on the left. Walk down the Chemin des Oratoires, past Notre-Dame de la Salette Chapel, view over Tourves Castle, the Néron Park and return to the car park along Chemin des Grès and Les Ferrages. A quick dip in the Caramy will recharge your batteries and refresh you!
