This is a cue sheet for the La Napoule, Maure Vieil, Col de la Cadière circuit Running / Walking Route. You can print it out for later use.

Cumulative Distance Where Notes Direction Elevation
0km 0km La Napoule N 39.6m
0.7km 0.7km Port de la Rague better to go down and under the main road SW 221° 12.2m
1.1km 0.4km Go up at the signed point ENE 54° 13.6m
1.2km 0.1km zigzag back ignoring the "chateau sign". If you'd come up earlier you would be on that path WNW 292° 31.9m
2.6km 1.3km take the left hand fork to go up on the ridge. The RH fork will get you to the same place but it is more windy - but IIRC is also shadier WNW 291° 101.1m
3.3km 0.8km Maure Vieil The track left is a dead end. Right takes you to the road and a tarmac descent. The path left/straight on is probably more pleasant that the road NW 295° 151.1m
3.8km 0.5km You can if you go left here and up into the Mimosas for a bit. Turn right at the obvious point after c.500m to rejoin the main path WNW 275° 91.5m
4.2km 0.4km Turn left off the tarmac SSE 149° 57.8m
4.7km 0.5km Can turn right and take the path across the Pont Sarazin here. Its a good deal further and takes you up Mpnt St Martin and the Oeufs de Bouc S 167° 67.4m
6.9km 2.2km Col de la Cadière If you want to extend the outing there are lots of alternatives here. ESE 105° 241.9m
8.4km 1.6km Keep straight on unless you want to add some more distance E 81° 266.4m
8.9km 0.5km Bear right and up hill on the wide track NE 41° 245.3m
10.3km 1.4km Bear right following the "Piste de Californie" sign (note the GPS lyingly says we went a bit off course - we stayed on the path) NNE 10° 200.6m
11.2km 0.9km Enjoy the view and bear left on the path under the electricity cables NNW 355° 230.4m
11.3km 0.2km As a general rule from this point head downhill NNE 20° 251.5m
11.6km 0.3km don't go directly to the road. Its a steep drop. Path bears left and joins the road at the hairpin bend WNW 277° 204.9m
11.7km 0.1km Theoule E 88° 192.9m
12.4km 0.7km Its actually shorer to bear right at the junction but it gets you to the same place so it doesn't really matter ENE 59° 138.1m
13.1km 0.7km The left dead ends, as we discoivered NE 43° 86.2m
14.4km 1.3km Note the short cut down the steps on the right NE 38° 54.9m
15km 0.6km La Napoule Option to turn right here cross over the railway on the footbridge to go down to the beach and along there instead ENE 64° 27.1m
15.2km 0.2km Instead of going down to the Port de la Rague you should be able to go up the road here and get on a path. NNE 21° 31.9m
15.6km 0.4km N 32.3m
