START / ARRIVAL: Rollands car park
COMMUNITIES CROSSED: Pierrefeu-du-Var, Puget-Ville, Collobrières, La Londe-les-Maures
BEARING: orange
After the Rollands car park in Pierrefeu, go round the archery ground to the right, following a pretty path that you take down to cross the D14.
Follow the vineyards for 2 km, following the orange paint markings.
Enter the track and leave the tarmac for good to begin your discovery of the Maures.
Follow the main direction of the "Chemin de Maraval" arrow post.
After the Hameau de la Tuillière, take the direction of "Les Rouves". The quality of the paths allows you to take advantage of it to trot a little.
Enter the track and walk 7 km from the " Cogolins ". After 3 km, at "Saute Maraval", take the direction of Baudisson for 2.5 km.
After 5 km of gentle descent, after crossing the small stream in the cool oak forest, you must cross the D14 and enter the commune of Collobrières.
Take the opportunity to stop in the village and head for the town centre, which is 800 m away. The shopkeepers are waiting to show you the products made from Collobrières chestnuts.
Go back if you went to the town centre and turn left onto the road to the IME. Follow the tarmac for 2 miles. You can walk on the side of the road to make it more comfortable for your horses.
At the "La Capelle" post, take "Pierrefeu la Portanière".
Follow the discovery trail for 2 km.
You arrive at the Camps Bourjas water reservoir, which has been specially fitted out for equestrian walkers: tie-up bars are waiting for your mounts, with wooden picnic tables for your meal. Take advantage of the quietness of the place to admire the birdlife and the local flora. The reservoir is safe for your horses. You can take advantage of this to quench their thirst. The Camp Bourjas reservoir is rich in fish species. With a total surface area of 1.5 hectares, it is home to roach, common and sun perch, pike and pike-perch, which cohabit with the trout that are regularly released.
Follow the trail upwards with the orange paint markers.
After 2 km, after the RD 41 west post, go in the direction of "Grand Gageai". You are on the ONF Défense de la Forêt Contre l'Incendie (Forest Fire Defence) tracks. You can take advantage of this to do some nice gallops, being careful of other users of course!
A 2.5 km, at the "Valcros D'Aumeran" post, take the portanière by the "Grand Gageai" for 5 km. Admire the sublime view of the sea and the Faron and Coudon mountains. This circuit makes you take the height. Enjoy it!
Cross the RD88 at "Chamadou" and continue for 6 km.
At the "Issemble Beaussenas" post, take "Pierrefeu la Portanière" for 1 km. You will arrive at the initial car park.
