A very demanding and qualitative route (around 23 km for 1590 m of D+!), both physically and due to the technicality of certain sections, which is aimed at seasoned practitioners!
Description
From the Maïre car park, first head to the roundabout at the Maison du Parc naturel régional du Verdon, climb towards the Col de l'Âne and Col de Plein Voir, before heading back down towards Saint-Maurin and the Bois de Félines to climb back up to the Col de l'Âne... Where, shortly after, there is more than 3,5 kilometres of fairly steep descent (on the same path as on the way out)
are waiting for you to return to the Maison du Parc roundabout.
Although the highest point of your outing will not be in the high mountains, expect a truly "mountain trail" route with, in particular: steep sections (both uphill and downhill) + in places roots and various very rocky sections, emblematic of the Verdon region, which will even add to the overall difficulty...
