Description

Would you like to discover the stunning nature of the Prealps d’Azur Natural Park? Then join me on this 1-day hike from La Clue.

The Prealps d’Azur Natural Park is located in the south of France in Saint Vallier de Thiey, just an hour drive away from Nice. This stunning location is ideal for hiking through forests, foothills, gorges and hillside villages and reconnecting with nature.

On this 1-day hike, we will set off from La Clue towards the Rouaine hamlet where we will admire some old houses and a magnificent view of the plain. Then, we will continue on the southern slope which will give us the chance to catch sight of the sea if the weather is nice. On the north slope, we will enjoy hiking through a forest where we will encounter the beautiful wildlife of the region, as well as admire the changing colors of the leaves. Finally, we will end on a trail that goes down to a plain with a little stream. In total, we will spend 3.5 hours hiking and cover a distance of 10km. We will also enjoy 2 hours of rest as we go along. Everyone is welcome to join!

About the guide

Fred

Mountain Leader

I am 53 years old. I discovered the mountain world and its activities a little more than 30 years ago in the Ariège Pyrenees. I have since spent most of my free time in the mountains, until I moved there 7 years ago. I started guiding in 1990 when I arrived in the Alpes-Maritimes region as part of a small mountain club affiliated to the Mountain and Climbing French Federation. I certified myself as an UIMLA Mountain Leader in 2013 and started guiding qi-gong and discovery hikes.

I work mainly in the territory of the Prealps d'Azur. That is where I live and it’s the terrain I know. I live in Valderoure, about 45 minutes drive from Grasse. After working almost 24 years in computer science mostly in Sophia-Antipolis, I needed a return to nature, a simple life, the most autonomous and authentic possible. So I chose to settle myself in the countryside and work there.

I am a farmer-baker. I produce cereals and turn them into flour and bread. The bakery is located in the hamlet of Lattes, near Saint-Auban. Wheat grows in Collongues in the Estéron Valley. I chose to live a simple life, looking to find real wealth, living on the land, paying attention to everyday’s life, living with little, able to discover the land where I live in total simplicity.

I learn by walking. I share what I have learned and what I learn every day and I nourish myself from new encounters and experiences. That's what I would like to share with you.

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

Valeriya

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Cami

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
