The Garlaban Mountain is located west of Aubagne and Roquevaire and culminates up to 710 meters. Most of its part is made of limestone but it still has traces of the previous agrarian activity: numerous terraces of culture and ancient farms. Various tracks can be found and especially the Pagnol tracks, which allow visitors the major elements of the novels and films of the famous French Academician. The state-owned forest of Cuges-les-Pins, the local forest of la Penne sur Huveaune… The protection laws validate the interest of this specific environment but compel some practices, especially practices of circumspection concerning risks of fire in massifs. So the access to the Sainte Baume and Garlaban Mountains is forbidden to the public by strong wind (60km per hour). This restriction is reinforced from the 1st of July to the second week-end of September, each year. |
