Description of the walk

Stationner sur le parking du VCS Village Club du Soleil, à Reverdi.

(S/E) Descendez vers la réception du VCS, prenez à gauche vers le parking en contrebas, puis traversez la rivière et longez le terrain multisports. Remontez derrière le terrain pour rejoindre le GR®®9. Prenez-le à droite, rejoignez, quelques centaines de mètres plus loin, un carrefour marqué par une barrière.

(1) Quittez ici le GR® et obliquez à gauche dans le Chemin des Chèvres. Montez par quelques lacets, rejoignez un carrefour de sentiers.

(2) Prolongez en face pour arriver au carrefour au pied de San Peïre.

(3) Obliquez à droite pour terminer la montée au Sommet de San Peïre.

(4) Revenez, en sens inverse, au carrefour précédent.

(3) Tournez à droite, en descente, pour trouver rapidement une piste. Prenez-la à droite et conservez-la jusqu'à un carrefour multiple avec présence ici d'une citerne DFCI.

(5) Restez sur la piste de droite, c'est la Piste Suzanne, rejoignez plus bas le GR®9.

(6) Partez à droite sur le GR®, retrouvez ensuite le carrefour initial, passé à l'aller.

(1) Empruntez alors le cheminement initial, mais en sens inverse, pour revenir au parking du VCS (S/E).

Notes

Entre (3) et (5) en dessous des Antennes il est aussi possible de passer par un chemin à travers la forêt, pour éviter une partie de la piste 4x4. Ce chemin offre moins de vue et est assez abrupt. Il n'est pas recommandé.

Worth a visit

(4) San Peïre
Comme planté au milieu d’une forêt de chênes-lièges, ce bloc géant de granite gris situé à 416 mètres d’altitude vous transporte dans le temps. Habitat fortifié du Moyen-Âge, le site du San Peïre est occupé depuis le Néolithique jusqu’au 13e siècle où la population quitte progressivement le castrum après la sécurisation du territoire par les moines du Thoronet. En plus de son histoire, le San Peïre, c’est aussi un point de vue à couper le souffle avec un panorama à 360° sur la plaine du Plan de la Tour, le Golfe de Saint-Tropez, les massifs des Maures et de l’Estérel, ainsi que les prémices des Alpes.

Magnificent view from the summit.
Problem: the path that is supposed to lead up from the forest road after crossing a small stream does not exist. We therefore went there and back via the same route, which, according to the description, is the return route. But this isn’t a problem.

At point 1, the start of the goat path is inaccessible.
We followed the stream, which had run dry.
A steep climb, but there’s a lovely view from the top.
The return via the track is straightforward and offers different views.
Thank you for posting this.

Hello, we set off from the centre of Plan de la Tour, along the San Peire trail, Les Antennes, San Peire, then the Suane trail. A very beautiful route.

Just to note that it was not possible, or rather risky, to take the first left turn onto the goat path due to the vegetation and the overflowing stream at this point. We turned left further up, just before point 6, through the forest.
We descended via the long circular trail without any problems.

Thanks to the previous hiker who drew our attention to the no parking zone at the suggested location
and the start of the goat path.
We did indeed have to follow a stream for 100 metres, which is the path!
No other issues on this half-day route, which offers a beautiful panoramic view in a short time.
The descent is longer but comfortable.

Thanks for sharing this.
The 360° view of the gulf is simply magnificent.
Two small comments:

  • It is no longer possible to park your car in the VCS car park. I received a friendly warning on my windscreen! They told me that the car park is 400 metres further on towards Plan de la Tour.
  • The start of the goat path (1) is difficult to find. Since it rained recently, it's a small stream.

Wow! What a magnificent 360° view from the top of San Peïre, mountains, sea! It's well worth the short climb from the start.
The goat path (I understand why it's called that now ^^) isn't easy to find as it's very narrow, but once you're on the trail, it's easy to follow.

This walk begins on the bustling quays of Saint-Tropez, where the hulls of boats dance to the rhythm of the reflections. We walk along the jetty to the lighthouse, a red sentinel facing the horizon, before returning along the seafront, between sunny terraces and pastel-coloured façades. Then, you climb up to the old town, with its cobbled streets, flower-filled balconies and memories of a fishing village that has become legendary. An easy circular loop, between sea splashes and Provençal memories, ideal for strolling along the water's edge and through time.
