Description

Join me deep in the forest on this accessible hike between the beautiful Verdon valley and the glistening Coulomp river. Spend the night in suspended tents, hanging over the charming woodlands.

This wonderful hiking trail overlooks the Verdon Valley, as the hiking trail is flanked by a sea of flowers blooming in spring.

The trail takes us to the summit where we can enjoy the great wilderness, with stunning views overlooking the valleys of Verdon and Coulomp.

Float above the mountain floor and experience our hanging tents, one of the best on the market. These triangular tents, which can fit three people, suspended above the ground with straps hooked around the mountain trees.

With a ladder access, choose yourself the height of the tent, which has a maximum height of 3 meters.

During the weekend trip, we will relax around the camp, enjoying an evening barbeque within the depths of the forest. We’ll wake up early in the morning and begin our trek.

Even though the level of activity is easy to moderate, the hike includes hours of walking on soft but also rugged terrain. Therefore, it requires a good level of fitness.

Discover the mountain delights of southern France as I lead you on a hike between the valleys of Verdon and Coulomp. And have a unique experience relaxing in a hanging tent, suspended around the mountainside.

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!
