Description
Perched at the end of a rocky spur, Gourdon is one of the most beautiful villages in the Alpes-Maritimes in France. Join me on a guided hiking day tour and enjoy the spectacular panorama views Gourdon offers with your family and friends!
This easy hike is suitable for everyone. It will take us about 4 hours, with an altitude gain of 300 meters. We will walk on Gourdon’s panoramic limestone plateau with the Côte d’Azur and the Gorges du Loup as a fantastic background.
Along our way, we will also find some limestone geological curiosities, like fossils and lapiaz, interesting traces of ancient human occupation in the area.
During this day hike we will cross a mysterious forest and a fortress on the edge of the plateau, with a surprising passage in the balcony.
At the end of our hike we get to Gourdon and enjoy the enchanting beauty of this village over a drink. You will discover the charm of Gourdon, with its white stone-built medieval houses nestling around an ancient castle. This is certainly a great hike along the coastline of the beautiful Alpes Maritimes.

Mountain Leader
My passion is hiking and it has been since I was a child. I am a Mountain Leader, ready to make you gain altitude!
My goal is to live adventures in a wild nature. And there are as many possibilities as varied landscapes and seasons!
Always looking for new spaces, privileged and authentic moments, a preserved and wild nature... It's above all about plenitude and contemplation, trying each time to understand the beauty of the sceneries.
I am a former lawyer, also ski patroller specialized in nivology and meteorology. I cross the massif ski touring during the winter for my own pleasure.

What people are saying about Fabrice
I booked a tour with Fabrice on late May, definitely the highlight of my holiday, we went on a hike around Casterino It was a relaxed hike with great sights of mountain forests and lakes, I got to see some of the local fauna and flora of the park, ibex, marmots, chamois, although not as much as they would be in the area, possibly because of the wolfs (we saw some footprints). Overall it is a great way to see the surroundings. I would definitely recommend Fabrice as a guide for your next hike!
