Solliès-Toucas walks

This route takes you along rediscovered paths and, above all, through the hamlet of Valcros with its square, chapel, tree and oven. Next, head to the Trubis cave when there is water. Afterwards, head towards the Castellas oppidum, but that will be for another time, and return to the Saint-Christine Chapel to appreciate its history and the view.

A nice climb to the top of Coudon (altitude 702 m) near Toulon.

This route will take you up to Solliès-Ville and then past the Notre-Dame du Deffens Chapel. On the way back, you will follow the bed of an old stream.

A circular loop in the hills above La Farlède. It follows a steep-sided valley, climbs up to a field of rockroses, joins the Canal de Provence through the woods and returns to the houses and car park by the chapel. Numerous fossils and other structures appear on the limestone walls and ground. The vegetation covers and hides many terraces and other ruins, signs of active human occupation until at least the beginning of the last century.

A short hike for short days. A large cave that serves as a shelter with a table and chairs. Moderator's note : some paths have become problematic on this old hike. See reviews.

The hike begins with a walk through the pretty village of Belgentier. It then climbs via theGR®9and 51 trails through oak and pine woods to the Pas de Belgentier. The trail heads south, offering magnificent views and some geological curiosities. The descent to the village is steep, along steep paths, and ends with a beautiful, partially stone-paved path in a pretty valley.

Magnificent views of the Hyères Islands and the Southern Alps.

A beautiful little path and a lovely climb, with the added bonus of superb views and challenging passages between large rocks.

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.

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...

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 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.

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.

A walk through holm oaks to the Revest lake viewpoint passing by a cave which can be visited.

A circular through the forest to discover the sand quarry that supplied the Tourris glassworks, with some nice surprises inside if you have a head torch, torch or mobile phone. Then we will go to the old marble quarry in Le Revest where some blocks have been engraved, not only with ants, which are in the majority, but also with bees, butterflies, wild boars and a wolf. Finally, we will pass through the hamlet of Les Olivières, which was part of the commune of Le Revest and was abandoned at the beginning of the 20th century: ruins of houses, wells, cisterns and ovens. Don't miss the central square with its magnificent centuries-old oak tree. And we will end with the abandoned glassworks of Tourris. A beautiful walk for the curious, young and old alike. If you take your time, allow 3½ hours for this fascinating walk.

A natural asset exploited by the local glass industry. A route through woodland where you will see the remains of dwellings, wells, sand and stone quarries, and former industry, near the derelict hamlet of Les Olivières.

In a private estate where walkers, cyclists and horse riders are welcome, you will have access to a magnificent Provençal setting, with an 18th-century château at the heart of its 160-hectare vineyard, and you will walk alongside the banks of the River Gapeau and its tributaries, the Petit Real and the Jonquière. This circular route is suitable for families.

This hike will take you across the Siou Blanc plateau. First, head south towards the Pyramide de Cassini and its fabulous viewpoint over Mont Caume and the Bay of Toulon. Then head north, overlooking the Gapeau valley, to discover the Arche de la Garoute hidden in the woods of the Morières-Montrieux national forest.
