Comps-sur-Artuby walks

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

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.

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...)

The Imbut trail is a hike that lets you discover the Verdon in the heart the gorge and the river bed. Extraordinary landscapes await you but this hike is difficult and certain sections on the cliffs (Chemin Vidal) and through rocks (section until the Baou Beni), require a good level of physical fitness. Be careful of vertigo! The altitude calculated by the software is a little high, it's closer to about 800m. The SENTIER DE L'IMBUT has been closed since July 2022 by municipal decree. It is still closed as of today 10/26/23 until further notice (risk of landslides/landslides). If you wish to do so in a few months, inquire in advance with the Aiguines town hall on 04 94 70 21 93

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.

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.

Tour of the Barre de la Sapée and Rocher du Castel de Ruel, via Cadières de Brendis, from the Col des Lèques, with superb views of the Verdon and surrounding area from the summit.

A hike in Pays du Verdon that takes ancient Roman roads, runs alongside an abandoned village and a chapel sheltered by rocks with magnificent landscapes.

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 lovely walk in the woods. Discover two small old chapels. Beautiful views of Aups.

A pleasant hike in a beautiful setting with no difficulties. Just for relaxation. This hike complements the Portail de Blieux hike described on the website.

A very beautiful hike offering magnificent views of the Sainte-Croix lake.

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.

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.

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 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 magnificent, varied and challenging loop offering superb views of the Verdon Gorge, the Pont du Galetas and the Lac de Sainte-Croix, accompanied by vultures soaring high above the cliffs. See practical information regarding difficulties and vertiginous passages.

This hike leads to a stunning viewpoint over the Lac de Sainte-Croix and the Verdon Gorges.

A beautiful walk through various landscapes, olive trees, impressive stone walls, a pine forest, caves and cave chapels.

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

A very pleasant, easy family hike through pine forests and small meadows, ideal for a picnic in the mountains.

This loop allows you to discover ancient dwellings on the plateau and a megalithic tomb.

Botanical trail leading to the Belvédère de Tréguier, with a magnificent view of the Lac de Sainte-Croix and the Ravin d'Angouire at the end

Moustiers Sainte Marie is worth a visit, but the route through the hills is a remarkable way to enjoy this very pleasant plateau.

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.

A pleasant little circuit in the Mediterranean forest.

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.

Magnificent gorges, especially in autumn. The climb up to the Chapelle Saint-André is a 2km round trip, but the view from the top is well worth the diversions. You will pass through the remains of the hamlet of Valbonnette. A little further on, another detour of around a hundred metres, to see the ruins of a house, where a large round pillar has remained in its centre, still with the notches used to fix the wooden beams on two levels.

Very beautiful hike to do between April and October.
