Cuers walks

A short climb to the Chapelles Sainte-Christine and the Chapelle Notre-Dame de Santé with its sundial on the ground. This is also an opportunity to discover part of old Cuers and the various wash houses along the way.

This is a walk I'm really enjoying at the moment with flowers along the route and a view of the Barres de Cuers. There's little difficulty, the false-flat is long, after the hives on the descent, so be aware. The hives are magnificent.

A beautiful hike, with a good climb and a superb view of the heights. It's a shame about the end, 30 minutes of tarmac...

A varied walk in Cuers leading to Les Apies de Cuers, the hamlet of Valcros and the Notre-Dame de Santé Chapel.

A varied walk in Cuers leading to the foothills of Cuers, a panoramic view above Belgentier, through the woodland, to the hamlet of Valcros and the Chapel of Notre-Dame de Santé.

A route where you can rediscover the footpaths and, above all, the hamlet of Valcros with its square, the chapel, the tree and its oven. Then a visit to the Trubis Cave when there is water.Afterwards, we head towards the Castellas oppidum, but that will have to wait for another time, and we return to the Sainte-Christine Chapel to appreciate its history and the view.

A very pleasant loop that takes you along the Barre de Cuers via Les Veys. The lower part is on a green trail. The upper section, along the Barre, offers magnificent views with Porquerolles, Port Cros, Le Levant and the main peaks of eastern Toulon in the background. The west-east orientation of the Barre means you can avoid the mistral wind. Despite strong winds, the trail is sheltered and easy to walk. Spring is the best season as it gets hot in summer.

Discover a small path which, after a steep climb, leads to the Solliès-Ville orientation table. Moderator update on 14/12/2020: Please note! Accessibility issue at the start of the route. See reviews.

Nestled against a rocky peak, Pierrefeu-du-Var reveals itself as a Provençal gem at the gateway to the Massif des Maures.

The route naturally leads to the site of Sainte-Croix, the spiritual and historical cradle of the commune.

From the heights of Solliès-Ville, enjoy magnificent views of Toulon harbour, the Coudon massif, the Cuers plain and the hamlet of Vallaury. The route includes some fairly technical, rocky, stony sections with steep gradients, where it is best to watch your step. These sections can become tiresome and spoil the fun a little, hence the difficult level.

This circular route passes through nine arches, including the famous Garoute Arch. This route offers a glimpse of two others that are very difficult to access and are not part of this route. First, you come across a beautiful viewpoint over the Îles d’Hyères, then a few charcoal burners’ huts, a walled rock shelter and a small cave that were used by the forest’s craftsmen. This trail allows you to appreciate the surrounding hills and the many rocks carved by erosion. There are other points of interest to seek out by straying from the trail, ‘following your instincts’, but this is best left to the experienced hiker with an adventurous spirit!Please note: some sections not shown on any maps require careful reading of the terrain, and as such, it is advisable to read the practical information carefully before venturing onto this trail.

This hike leads to a popular hiking spot in the Var region, but via a lesser-known route and using a minimum of tracks.

If you are guided by a desire to explore, this circuit, which penetrates the heart of Siou-Blanc, will allow you to discover lost arches, caves, karstic caves, dolomites and a few rocks whose shapes give free rein to the imagination. There are also a few remains of basic shelters, evidence of ancient occupation of the site. All these curiosities are hidden in the heart of a magnificent primeval forest and can be accessed by straying slightly from the more frequented paths.

Siou-Blanc is a vast limestone plateau stretching between the Route du Castellet, the Gapeau valley, the village of Signes and the summit of Mont Caume. Covering nearly 9,000 hectares, it features beautiful karst slabs, is covered in kermes oaks, dotted with karstic caves, grottos and sinkholes, and offers magnificent geological features. It is criss-crossed by a wide network of DFCI-type tracks but also offers numerous trails, some more clearly marked than others, providing access to unexpected sights.

A pretty loop with no particular difficulties, on tracks, among oak and arbutus trees in the Maures mountains.

This route is a variation of the excellent Les Deuxièmes Borels route, which is also featured on the website. It is still, and I quote, a "lovely circular path with no particular difficulty, among the oak and arbutus trees in the Massif des Maures, with beautiful views of the sea and the islands". This H variant extends the beautiful part on the track, at altitude and with views, and shortens the descent into the forest. See the practical information for details of this variant.
