Circuit des crêtes de Porquerolles (center)
Discover the splendors of the island of Porquerolles through a range of panoramic views offered by the sentier des crêtes.
From Place d'Armes, head south towards the village exit, passing the doctor's surgery on your left. Just after, turn right to pass the Maison de Parc, on the Place des Deux Etoiles, take Rue des Anciens Chais on your left, until you reach the intersection with the pine alley. Caution: In the event of forest closures, as decided by the Var Prefecture, this trail or part of it may be closed to the public. For more information, visit http://www.var.gouv.fr/acces-aux-massifs-forestiers-du-var-a2898.html the evening before your outing.
Follow the direction of the lookout for a short climb before continuing, at the level of the cut tree trunk, along the path in the undergrowth towards the crests. At the hairpin bend, turn left to join the ridge path to the Gorge du Loup.
At Gorge du Loup, a steep path leads down to the sea. Continue towards the lighthouse before turning right off the main trail to join the chevreaux.
Once you've reached Les Chevreaux, come out onto an open rocky area and continue to the left, skirting the cliffs and returning to the undergrowth. Take the ridge path on the right, leaving the undergrowth.
At the edge of the forest track, follow the direction of the lighthouse, skirting the gites. Reach Cap d'Arme, then the lighthouse, and follow the path to Calanque de l'Indienne.
Continue along the cliffs in the direction of Oustaou de Diou. Shortly after Grand Cale Est, on the stony path, do not follow the arrow, but continue straight ahead.
Once you've reached the fork in the road, continue in the direction of the village. A return trip to the beach is possible. After the first plot of Courtade vineyards, turn right at the ditch to pass through farmland before forking off at the left-hand hairpin.
At the "4 chemins" crossroads, turn left towards Le Hameau. Once you've reached the Oliviers crossroads, turn right towards the village.
