Circular starting from the tourist station at Sainte-Anastasie-sur-Issole. A few tarmac paths, but a beautiful hike nonetheless. This hike is not difficult.

Description of the walk

Start and finish at the tourist station.

(S) Leave the car park towards the Issole, take the metal staircase and cross the Issole.

(1) On the other side, turn right onto Chemin des Vignarets. Cross a stream and go straight ahead at the first crossroads. At the next crossroads, turn left into Rue de Provence.

(2) Take a small tunnel under the D15. Follow Chemin des Vaux, pass under a high-voltage power line and reach a fork.

(3) Then turn left. At the next intersection, keep left onto Chemin de Bon Jeu (tarmac).

(4) When the path turns left, continue straight ahead on the path opposite. Follow this path for about 700 metres.

(5) At the crossroads, turn right and walk for about 1 km until you reach the PR®.

(6) Take the PR® on the right and continue along the uphill track opposite for 1.3 km until you reach the intersection.

(7) Turn left onto Route des Molières (walk on the far left of the road as there may be some traffic). Stay on the tarmac road for approximately 1.3 km.

(8) Then turn left and walk along the Issole on your right. Ignore two paths on the left. Turn left onto the main marked path and continue to an intersection.

(9) Leave the marked path and take the path on the right. Ignore a path on the left and you will soon reach another intersection.

(10) Turn right along the vineyards. Then turn left and follow the Issole river again. Take the first bridge over the river.

(11) At the T-junction, turn left along a railway line on the right.

(12) At the intersection near the D15, take the track on the left. Cross the Issole again and, on the other side of the bridge, turn right. Follow the Issole on your right and ignore the paths on the left. Continue along the Issole until you reach the underpass beneath the RD 15. Take this underpass and continue until you reach the metal staircase on the right. And there you have it, you've completed a circular route (S/E).

The walk along the Issole is in the shade all the way to the car park at the turning point. On the way there, you pass through lovely woods beneath the oak trees, a short stretch of road—but very narrow and quiet—and, most notably, a farm with around fifteen donkeys. Please be careful: there is an electric fence.

A short, easy and unpretentious circular route around Sainte-Anastasie, though it offers little shade. Not recommended during the summer months. There are some lovely stretches through the hills and along the Issole.

It's better to have the app because there are no markers.
