The meeting point for the visits is the esplanade of the Tournoux fort.
Access is via a track from the village of Tournoux, which is suitable for vehicles but not recommended for low cars.
Work on the Fort de Tournoux began in 1843 with the aim of defending the region against invasions from Italy. These massive, spectacular fortifications constituted the core of the valley's strategic defence.
