Access: machine translated ➜

From Nice on the N 85 ("Route Napoleon") via Grasse in the direction of Digne. 12 km after Grasse you drive through St-Vallier-de Thiey, about 14 km further on the road makes a sharp right turn below a rock face (large parking bay with a view on the left). At the exit of this bend, a narrow tarred road inconspicuously turns off to the left towards the hamlet of Bail. 200 m further on, shortly after the left-hand bend over a side ditch of the Colle, park your vehicle.

Approach (10 min): machine translated ➜

Descend over the rocky ridge on the right side of the mentioned ditch until you meet the Colle coming from the right (north).

Tour (1 h): machine translated ➜

7 rappels, max. 18 m

Return (35 min): machine translated ➜

Where the gulch opens up at about 800 m above sea level, turn left up over the scree cirque with the wrecked cars and then follow the tracks to the road. Turn left along this to the vehicle.

Automatisch importiert von Descente-Canyon.com für Canyon Colle (aval) Il faut en profiter, car le débit baisse... Bon équipement dans l'ensemble. Pour remonter, tirer droit en RG après le dernier rappel, éviter la grande grotte par la gauche, puis droit jusqu'à la route.
