Trail description

A climb of about 580 m from the Lac de Bimont up the Sainte-Victoire on the blue-marked Imoucha path to the Prieuré and the Croix de Provence at 946 m. The cross stands on the western point of the mountain rather than its highest summit, the Pic des Mouches. The present cross is the fourth on the site and can be seen for miles. In summer the massif closes on days of high fire risk.
