Report

2 weeks after finishing the full GR4, I've decided to start this GR49. I followed the GR signs and I've been helped by the gpx when needed. I had to do a little detour in the Siagne canyon due to the floods of rainy weather of the last few days. Stopped the watch at the GR4 Carrefour, a bit before Rougon as on the FKT website (it's 200m altitude lower than Rougon). I have on my watch 111km and 4100+. There are not many water sources, especially during the 40 first km, but 2L was enough. The end of the route is beautiful, as we entered in the Verdon area.
