Overlooking the medieval city of Sauve, this rocky chaos presents a magical landscape where vegetation and rocks with astonishing shapes mingle. Follow the yellow markings.

An educational and fun break to take during your journey with "Crunch Sauve". A drawing table was produced by the association Sauve Inspire and installed in the sea of rocks towards the Castellas (control plot). Two others installed in the village will allow you to discover its heritage while learning to draw! Accessible to all, take a pencil and a small notebook with you.

Itinerary

Follow the yellow markers.

At the "Roquevaire" post, make your way towards "les escaliers", and immerse yourself in the heart of the Sea of Rocks, a unique landscape which is home to an astonishing abundance of plant life on this site, which at first sight, appears to be sterile.

After a gentle slope, you will climb quickly up to a flat area which offers a beautiful viewpoint over the rocks, from where you can see the roofs of Sauve.

At "les Escaliers" post, continue towards " le Conservatoire". Take an ingeniously paved street that leads down to the village.
