Claviers walks

Ascent to the Sainte-Anne Chapel, located 624 m above sea level on the western summit of the Plateau du Puy, passing by the ruins of a Ligurian oppidum. Easy hike in the Provence scrubland and forest (thyme, lavender, rock rose...)

A walk around a little-known village with hidden gems, close to home! Montferrat is located 14 km north of Draguignan. The hike starts at Place des Allées, west of the village in front of the pretty village school. The esplanade, a former transhumance site, is adorned with centuries-old plane trees and bordered by the Nartuby River. We are in the Var department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Most of the route is through woodland.

A pleasant walk letting you discover the National Forest of the Colle du Rouët, the Trou de Gournié, also called Cascade de l'Endre and the river Endre.

A stroll in an exceptional place, discovering the gorges of the river Blavet and the cave of Mueron which was inhabited in the Bronze Age. Ideal in summer and on warmer days, avoid periods of heavy rain.

This is a beautiful hike of about 5 hours in the Colle du Rouët national forest in Le Muy, in a wild environment offering a 180° panorama to the south, with magnificent views of Saint-Raphaël, Fréjus and the sea to the east, and as far as Sainte-Baume and Montagne Sainte-Victoire to the west. The second part of the hike includes a tricky off-trail section through vegetation, from (5) to (7). Description of the possible alternative route in the Practical Information section.

This short hike takes you to an old millstone quarry and a prehistoric settlement with remarkable views.

A lovely walk from Bargème and its castle to the banks of the Artuby with its turquoise waters. You will enjoy splendid views of the surrounding area as far as Mont Coudon. Part of the walk is in the sun (take care in summer) and part is in the woods (very pleasant).

A lovely hike alternating between tracks, rocky paths and magnificent woodland. Panoramic views of the valley, the Lachens, Canjuers and Les Maures.

Set off to conquer the roof of the Var and enjoy the magnificent panoramic views from the summit.

A magnificent family walk around Lake Aréna, on the banks of the Argens and at the foot of the Rocher de Roquebrune. The flora is interesting: you will find Spanish broom, scorpion broom, cotton cistus, Provence cane, prickly pear, fennel, wood chervil, white bread, false cypress euphorbia, eleven o'clock flowers, radiated anacycles, sage-leaved rockrose, white campion, ravenelle, flax, meadow clover...

This is a very shady hike that starts in Montouroux, descends to the Siagne through woods, passes by the beautiful Pont des Tuves bridge and its swimming spots, and returns through a beautiful forest of centuries-old oak trees. ⚠️ 15/09/2025: It appears to be impossible to start the hike at the starting point and connect to point 2: private path with signs and fencing. Hike awaiting verification.

A beautiful walk along the Siagne, through the woods, with some lovely surprises in store: the Tuve bridge and its waterfall, a beautiful little beach, numerous ruins that bear witness to a major agricultural activity in the past, and a forest of centuries-old oaks that is nothing short of fairytale forest. In short, it's the perfect tour for nature lovers and those who enjoy a refreshing swim.

A short but energetic walk that is exposed towards the end. Enjoy the stunning views from the top of Rocher de Roquebrune with its famous ochre colours.

A short, easy climb to a peak in the Haut Var with a 360° view and the chance to see some megalithic ruins. A beautiful walk through the heath.

A walk that starts with a return trip to the old Malpasset dam (a sad reminder of the past) and continues in a loop to the beautiful Lac de l'Avellan. Please note: The area around Lac de l'Avelan is completely off-limits for safety reasons (work in progress that may take quite some time).

At this site of sad memory, this loop allows you to see the remains and ruins of this structure, which was destroyed in a matter of minutes on 2 December 1959.

The circuit is a loop, so it is of course possible to walk it in either direction, with the beautiful Lac de l'Avellan halfway along the route.

This circular is ideal for a lovely family outing. Its largely shaded route offers beautiful views of the Argens, the Barres de Pouaré and the Rocher de Roquebrune. This circuit also offers the opportunity to climb to the summit of Cabredor and cross the oppidum that occupies it.

A family hike that allows you to discover the banks of the Aille and Argens rivers and explore the flora of the communal forest of Les Arcs-sur-Argens

Starting from the charming village of Saint-Cézaire-sur-Siagne, you will explore the Siagne Gorges. On the programme: - descent to the Saint-Saturnin Chapel, - walk along the Siagne canal, - crossing the splendid Pont des Gabres (or Pont des Tuves, depending on which bank you are on), - climb back up this wild river with its crystal-clear waters and return to the village for a lovely view of this beautiful valley.

A pleasant little circuit in the Mediterranean forest.

Easy walk on forest tracks from the Tour de Taradeau to the Croix with a superb view of the Argens plain.

This circular hike starting from the Col du Testanier will first take you to the edge of Lac de l'Avellan before an easy climb to the Col du Logis de Paris. Next, a challenging climb along little-used paths will take you to a ridge at the foot of Mont Vinaigre. The climb to the summit, the highest point in the Estérel, will reward your efforts with a magnificent 360° panorama from Mercantour to Saint-Tropez and from Vintimille to Sainte-Victoire!

This is an easy hike in winter when the weather is good, with superb panoramic views from Mont Aigre over Fréjus Bay, the Estérel, the sea and the snow-capped Mercantour.

This is a short circuit which, at its highest point, offers a panoramic view from Cannes to Fréjus with a view of the sea.

A superb hike in the Grasse hinterland. On the agenda: megaliths, magnificent views of the entire coast (on a clear day) and, to finish, a superb waterfall in an exceptional setting.

A beautiful and enjoyable hike, without any particular difficulty, dotted with historical sites and varied landscapes: rocky, wooded, plains. You won't be bored for a minute and, as a highlight, there is a breathtaking 360° panorama from the highest point.

This is a short tour that can be completed in an hour and allows you to recharge your batteries in nature. Starting from the Vidauban athletics stadium, after a few kilometres on a tarmac road, you will experience your first change of scenery with a ford that can be more or less difficult to cross depending on the season. Then you follow the golf course fence, first on a tarmac road and then, after a few hundred metres, on a very rough track, but the golf course offers magnificent views. Leaving the golf course, you enter the woods on small tracks, then cross another ford before reaching the Route du Plan de la Tour, after crossing another ford and the bridge over the Aille. The route ends by taking another grassy, shaded path.

This route can be challenging at times, especially after rain, but the landscapes it passes through are truly breathtaking. Starting in the Plaine des Maures, you cross a forest of umbrella pines, Douglas firs, holm oaks and cork oaks. The terrain varies greatly, from sand and pebbles to stones and tarmac, allowing you to catch your breath as you go. The highlights are the Route des Crêtes Marc Robert, which reveals Lac des Escarcets, a silvery lake in the middle of the green plain, and the descent of the Cinq Sedes, winding down to the village of Les Mayons with its many viewpoints. An unforgettable route!

A very picturesque route which, when the weather conditions are right, allows you to observe the Pic de l'Ours on the Estelle on one side and Notre-Dames des Anges on the Maures on the other, from the vicinity of the summit of Castel Diaou. You'll pass through a multitude of different landscapes in the woods, valleys and ridges. You follow the Argens and the Aille, and cross them after, or even before, overlooking them.

A beautiful hike between plains and low mountains, offering sumptuous landscapes. Start at the Aille and, after a few kilometres, tackle the first 3 km climb. Descend for 2 kilometres before tackling the hardest part: a climb of about 6 kilometres that starts on a track that is half sand, half earth, before turning into a stony track.

A beautiful, easy hike in the Maures plain. It crosses the plains, passes over the Aille, crosses fords, goes through woods, and ventures onto a botanical trail with descriptions. The return journey follows the same route, with a few variations, and, as on the way there, care should be taken on the bends in the track north of Les Plaines, which hide the watercourses that can cause severe erosion.

A long and beautiful hike that allows you to discover the Estérel National Forest via Mont Vinaigre. Offers beautiful views of the Mediterranean.

A beautiful walk up the Verdon by its bed ! A feast for the eyes from start to finish ! ⚠️The Sentier Martel is not very difficult for regular walkers, but you have to be careful. However, the trickiest part is the Imbert ladders (6 ladders, 252 steps), which are difficult for hikers prone to vertigo. The difference in altitude is overestimated. See comments at the bottom of this page

This round trip route takes you to the Samson Corridor, which marks the entrance to the Grand Canyon. It will take you through the tunnels of the Blanc-Martel trail to the Trescaïre viewpoint.The trail follows the Blanc-Martel trail, but is much more accessible and offers a unique experience thanks to the tunnels.The indicated elevation gain, calculated automatically, is incorrect.See the practical information section for details of the minimum equipment required.

A beautiful circular loop for admiring the Gorges du Verdon in a more intimate way and from different viewpoints. Sumptuous panoramic views of the Grand Canyon and Colle de Breïs and, of course, Point Sublime. A challenging route, well suited to trail runners: it climbs for most of the route but with a reasonable gradient. Then comes a short but fairly steep descent, which proved less difficult than it looked.

Overlooking the village of Rougon and located at an altitude of over 1,200 metres, the Plateau du Suech offers beautiful panoramic views where, with a little luck, you can admire the griffon vultures of the Verdon.

From Saint-Raphaël station, head to the seafront and follow the coastal path to Dramont. The red rock coastline dotted with small coves and beautiful sandy and pebble beaches with turquoise waters is a feast for the eyes. Please note that this coastal path is not really a path. The route mainly follows the rocks with the help of steps.

Vieux Cannet des Maures is a village full of character, certainly worthwhile a visit. Entraygues, the cave chapel of Saint Michel and the natural arches of Argens.
