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.

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 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.

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

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.

Not a very long hike with less than 11 km but very hilly with a rocky, steep incline.

I went on two walks I found on Visorando: "Le Revest - Tourris Castle" and "Tourris and the Pyramide de Cassini" before finding this itinerary that I'm recommending. The beginning of the first until the departmental road then part of the initial section of the second. Unlike the "Pyramide de Cassini", we discovered a route that's not marked on the maps but which joins the "Chemin des Turcos" in a forested area. A walk with uneven terrain that can be difficult at times.

This walk takes you through the Aiguilles de Valbelle site, with its rocky peaks rising out of the forest. Beautiful forest tracks, a few footpaths and the Chartreuse Notre-Dame de Montrieux (which cannot be visited).

Parking near the Siou Blanc sheepfold. A very pleasant route, mostly on wide, sunny fire prevention tracks. Passes through a wonderful site: the Aiguilles de Valbelle.

One of the most beautiful hikes in the Var.This hike climbs Mont Faron via wide tracks and offers breathtaking views of the most beautiful harbour in Europe.

A walk through the Var forests, alternating between trails and wide tracks, and from Pilon Saint-Clément, a path along the cliffs with magnificent views of the sea.

Leaving from Garde Pass, a beautiful hike through the Croupatier massif.

Perched at an altitude of 800 metres, Mont Caume is one of the four Toulonais brothers which surround Toulon. It is certainly the highest; its summit is very dry as it's very exposed to winds and fluctuations in weather. All these factors make ascending Mont Caume essential and well worth it. The hike suggested here enables you to go all the way round the mountain and combines the pleasures of a very active route with the joys of a pretty much complete visit to both its summit and its slopes.

A pleasant hike that is not difficult. Approximately 12 km in total with a gentle slope both uphill and downhill. Just be careful on the way back as the path is rocky in places.

A short loop starting from the Garonne beach, reaching the summit of the Colle Noire via the Port des Oursinières, the Cap Garonne mine, the forts of Gavaresse and Colle Noire, and the Navicelle and Tibouren vineyards. To the west, there is a view of the Grande Rade, Notre-Dame du Mai and the Bec de l'Aigle; to the east, the Tombolo de Giens, the Îles d'Or, Brégançon and Cap Bénat.

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

A hike looping around the Maures hills in the middle of cork oak forests. Lush vegetation with beautiful views of East Toulon. You take a portion of the GR51 called "The Balcony of the Mediterranean".

If you have an hour or two to spare, here is a short walk (tinged with a certain nostalgia) with no other pretensions than to discover or rediscover a corner of Carqueiranne that has not changed too much.

This walk offers magnificent views of Toulon harbour and the hinterland.

A hike in the outskirts of Toulon where you get a 360° view of the amazing countryside. A big meeting place for spies who monitor Toulon harbour.

This active route will take you through the Croupatier to the Baou de Quatre Ouro, one of the four "Toulonais brothers". Paths and ledges where you have to use your hands, passages with ropes, discover the main caves of the massif, where the famous caves of the Château du Diable make the route more interesting.

This very challenging route takes the hiker to the site of the Château du Diable and its remarkable caves and the Destel gorges, with their astonishing giant's kettles or cauldrons. Nice sections with chains or ropes.

A real route for hiking lovers. The Destel trail (named after the stream) offers a varied and enjoyable walk (climbing with a handrails and chains, a path along the water's edge, walking through the cuves (natural basins)).

A hike with beautiful viewing points over Sainte-Baume and the surrounding mountains, a nice stream in Latay and vestiges of former houses.

A beautiful walk around the Saint-Mandrier peninsula. The coastal path takes you from the Pointe de Marégau to the beaches of La Coudoulière and Cavalas. Then discover the picturesque little port of Saint-Mandrier. The route ends with a return trip through the countryside. Some urban sections.

A challenging hike with magnificent views of the ridge line.

A lovely hike up to Pivaut ice house (1880), which has been beautifully restored.

A dense, cool forest and a panoramic view of the Provençal mountains with the Îles du Levant in the distance. A mostly elevated hike, a floral explosion in June, and a refreshing end along a small river.

This walk takes you through varied landscapes: undergrowth, ridges, cliffs overlooking the sea, and two hill tops with 360° views of the coast and the mountains. For the more adventurous, an optional athletic route takes you down to the foot of Cap Sicié and the sea.
