Hiking through the hidden sides of Sainte-Victoire mountain

Presentation

Explore the North, South and East faces of this mythical mountain—the lesser-known sides of the mountain with Laura, a certified hiking guide. We will climb to places rich in history like the Untinos oppidum, Cézanne's refuge, the Saint-Ser hermitage, and the Trou ruins.
 
These hikes, accessible to all (average fitness level required), reveal an intimate and authentic Sainte-Victoire. Through stories of local heritage, landscape reading, and discovery of Mediterranean flora, each hike unveils a new face of this legendary mountain.
