Cabasse walks

A circular route starting from the Cabasse village hall via Les Vanaux, with a viewpoint at the antennas overlooking the village and a glimpse of Lake Sainte Suzanne, whilst following the Toulon water supply canal for 800 m.

Hike starting from the charming village of Cabasse, near Carcès, where you can discover several historical sites.

From the lake, the forest track and then steep steps lead us to the Rocher de Brauch, whose ridge overlooks the expanse of water of Lake Sainte-Suzanne, commonly known as Lake Carcès. This panorama offers a peaceful setting in the heart of Provence Verte. A long forest path and then a trail take us back to the lake shore. The Visorando app may be useful on one section.

A lovely, challenging hike along forest tracks with beautiful views from the ridges.

This route takes you from the Cistercian Abbey of Thoronet to Lac de Carcès via trails through a typical Var forest with holm oaks, kermes oaks and rosemary. Along the way, you can see the red bauxite soil and enjoy views overlooking Lac de Carcès and the vineyards. There is an alternative route down to the lake where you can take a break at the open-air café.

A pleasant hike with little elevation gain, suitable for children. The woods offer plenty of good spots for picnics.

A circular starting from Thoronet Abbey, allowing you to visit it. Through vineyards, forests and pretty, peaceful hamlets on tracks, paths and small country roads.

A lovely little walk along a path that runs alongside a small canal and leads to the magnificent Caramy Waterfalls.

A pleasant and informative walk around a medieval site and its surroundings. The route is dotted with information boards about the flora and history of the site. It is mostly shaded, which is a bonus in summer; it presents no particular difficulty and is suitable for children.

A walk on the eastern heights of Vins-sur-Caramy, pleasant in summer as it is often shaded by trees. It also allows you to visit the Grotte des Résistants, a key location for the local resistance during theSecond World War.

A family walk around the Old Castle of Vins-sur-Caramy.

This hike will visit the village of Carcés, Carcés Lake and the splendid Caramy Falls. Best in the spring when the water flow is stronger. You also will take a part of the path of Saint Jacques de Compostela.

A circular on the heights of Le Thoronet takes you through vineyards, olive groves and hamlets to the banks of the Argens river, where you can take a break in the cool. The name of the route is known as "Manjas de Perus", which translates as "wild pear eaters", linked to the poverty of the isolated hamlets.

This is an ideal short route to aid digestion and discover the diversity of the Montfort-sur-Argens area: vineyards, olive trees, terraces, huts, heath and forest, stone paths and red earth tracks. I love the diversity of this route, not to mention the views of the village, the Petit and Gros Bessillon hills. The start and finish of the route allow you to explore the picturesque streets of the old village. No particular difficulty.

The village of Entrecasteaux developed around a beautiful medieval castle in the Bresque Valley. The hike begins in front of the beautiful garden attributed to Le Nôtre at the foot of the medieval castle. After reaching the top of the village, it follows beautiful tracks and paths towards Saint-Antonin-sur-Var. It then climbs towards the ridge north of Entrecasteaux to reach the Défens de Valpaironne viewpoint.

Strolling amongst the villas, it’s easy to reach the forest tracks and discover that a dolmen has survived the centuries. Unfortunately, you’ll have to walk along the tarmac to complete a circular route and discover what time has not worn away.

Hike mainly through the woods of Menton and Entrecasteaux.

The walk to the Saint-Quinis Chapel offers exceptional views of the Issole Valley from the ridge.

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.
