    The Sentier du Blanc Martel : a must-see hike in the Verdon

    Hikers come from far and wide to “do the Blanc Martel”. This 15km trail starts at Chalet de la Maline and goes all the way to Point Sublime. Although it is not very difficult, it is not recommended for young children and is best-suited to experienced walkers. You can’t just make it up as you go along, you need to be quite prepared. Once you have started, it is difficult to turn back. The most challenging section is the Imbert stairs, all 275 of them. The view is breathtaking but watch out for vertigo! Allow for approximately 6 hours walking time.

    Imbut Trail: closed since 2022

    Long listed among the classic hikes of the Verdon, the Imbut Trail has been closed to the public since 5 July 2022 by municipal order, until further notice. For a hike at the bottom of the gorge, the Blanc-Martel Trail remains the best choice.

      If you prefer shorter walks, the Lézard Trail (about 2 hours’ walk) and the Pêcheur Trail (about 2h30) are very pleasant trails where you can discover the magnificent nature of the Verdon, including its plant and animal life.
