VTT FFC circuit no. 7 - The Olive Trees Loop
All the outdoor activities of the Nice Côte d'Azur Metropolis are on https://outdoor.nicecotedazur.org
The start is at the Olive Trees parking above the village of Castagniers, cross the Metropolitan road and go down to the right, Chemin du Vignon, following the direction of the wooden post "le Portion." Turn right. A DFCI track "forest track" then goes left and winds along the hillside to the hamlet 'le portion.' Turn left onto the "chemin bas Portion." At the road intersection, turn left and follow along the olive trees.
The route then takes a road passing close to the Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix abbey.
Before the calvary, turn left towards "la Loubière," descend a winding and fairly technical path to discover a dark valley. At the exit, continue following "la Loubière" direction towards the M1114. Then follow the direction of Castagniers via the M14 and then the M614.
Before the first hairpin bend, take a small road on the left that climbs towards a flat path. After 600m, turn right onto a small technical passage leading to the place called "Carretier." Continue descending using very wide steps.
Follow the VTT FFC markers and return to the starting point (olive trees parking).
