Ramatuelle walks

To the south of the Saint-Tropez peninsula lies a vast natural area with virtually no housing. Only a few forest tracks and rare paths criss-cross this protected natural site dotted with steep hills and a few valleys where vines flourish. All around, the Mediterranean Sea laps against a preserved shoreline, where a few beaches protected by Cap Lardier and Cap Taillat invite you to take a refreshing break.

This loop takes you along a narrow, steep and sometimes rugged coastal path, but the turquoise waters and unspoilt wildlife of the two headlands are well worth the detour.

A beautiful walk along the coast on an easy trail in a protected area. Be careful in rough seas at the start of the circuit, as there is a section at risk of flooding.

An easy hike along the coast between the Camarat lighthouse and L'Escalet on the Saint-Tropez peninsula. Enjoy beautiful Mediterranean landscapes between pine trees and turquoise water. When you arrive, a refreshing dip at the magnificent Escalet beach will do you the world of good!

A lovely easy walk, most of it by the sea.

Between nature and town, this loop takes in Grimaud and its must-sees: the Chapelle Saint-Roch, the Pont des Fées and the Vallon de la Garde on the outskirts of the village, the church of Saint-Michel, the village's typical narrow streets, the Tour de l'Horloge, the Chapelle des Pénitents and the Château de Grimaud.

Superbe vue des environs, notamment sur le Golfe de Saint-Tropez.

This is a short loop offering beautiful views of the Mediterranean coast on varied and sometimes challenging terrain. The trail starts among beautiful villas with sea views, then follows a balcony path above the coastline to a lovely beach, and returns via an old railway line. This walk is best suited to sure-footed walkers who are not afraid of tackling the climbs right from the start.

A beautiful loop where you can enjoy all the scents of Mediterranean flora and magnificent views throughout the hike. The route has a steep climb at the start, but this is quickly forgotten thanks to the views it offers. Although part of the route is on a tarmac road, this is fine as there is always something to look at.

In the hinterland of Saint-Tropez, a beautiful hike allows you to discover the old town of La Garde-Freinet, beautiful landscapes of heathland and cork oak forests, as well as the Roches Blanches, a rocky outcrop of quartz. Not to mention the Croix des Maures and Fort Freinet, carved into the rock in the Middle Ages.

Park in the car park next to the town hall annex and the post office. A superb view and a good little climb, a bit too much tarmac for me. Very well signposted, it's a superb loop.

A walk through the crests of the Maures forest. A breathtaking landscape taking in the Mediterranean and the Alps.

This easy walk offers beautiful views of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez on one side and the Estérel and Southern Alps on the other.

A short loop with superb views, to be done before or after visiting the charterhouse.

A walk through the Var forest ending in a forest of mimosas. Lovely views of the sea.

An easy hike with little elevation gain. A wide variety of landscapes in a wetland area: wooded areas, vineyards, open spaces, rock formations, varied vegetation (beautiful dwarf irises in April). Numerous fords and streams, pleasant in spring. moderator's note: site closed since 10/09/2021 until further notice

An easy walk in the Massif des Maures. Beautiful trails, rivers, streams, lakes and unique terrain. Not to mention the cork oaks, characteristic of the massif, and a varied flora (dwarf irises, anemones, orchids, etc.). Moderator's addition on 22/11/2021 Hike currently impossible due to a fire and the need to preserve nature. See comments at the bottom of this page.
