The Garou cave is located on the northern flank of the long rocky bar that borders the Aren valley in the Gros Cerveau forest massif.

Description

Caution! The access to the cave is off the marked path and is done by a steep passage below the road (take the small path marked with a red cross). There is an overhang with sealed metal handles to climb? Be very careful.

Additional welcome

During the summer period, which can be very dry, be sure to consult the map of access to the forest areas of the Var before starting a hike.

Attention:
As every year during the summer, from June 19th to September 20th, the Var prefecture regulates the penetration, the circulation and the parking on some roads serving the 9 forest areas of the Var.
This system informs walkers about the possibilities of access to the forest areas and the level of forest fire danger.
