The Bees of Cuers
Departure from Cuers (Var)
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.
Pierrefeu and the Cabane des Gardes (GR51)
Departure from Pierrefeu-du-Var (Var)
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".
Ascent of Coudon (83)
Departure from Solliès-Ville (Var)
A nice climb to the top of Coudon (altitude 702 m) near Toulon.
From Tourris to the Revest lake viewpoint
Departure from Le Revest-les-Eaux (Var)
A walk through holm oaks to the Revest lake viewpoint passing by a cave which can be visited.
The sand caves at Revest-les-Eaux
Departure from Le Revest-les-Eaux (Var)
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.
Le Revest - Tourris castle for experienced hikers
Departure from Le Revest-les-Eaux (Var)
Not a very long hike with less than 11 km but very hilly with a rocky, steep incline.
The Dardennes - The Turcos - the Pyramide de Cassini
Departure from Le Revest-les-Eaux (Var)
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.
Montagne de la Loube in La Roquebrussane
Departure from La Roquebrussanne (Var)
A short route that climbs up to the summit of the Loube mountain where you can enjoy a panoramic view over the sea and Alps. A wonderful walk with every step!
Le Faron
Departure from Toulon (Var)
One of the Var's most beautiful walks.
This hike climbs Mont Faron on wide tracks and offers a breathtaking view over the most beautiful bay in Europe.
Croupatier Cave via Le Broussan
Departure from Évenos (Var)
Leaving from Garde Pass, a beautiful hike through the Croupatier massif.
Climbing up and around Mont Caume (804m)
Departure from Évenos (Var)
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.
Circuit of Signs via Taoule and the Pont du Diable
Departure from Signes (Var)
A hike with beautiful viewing points over Sainte-Baume and the surrounding mountains, a nice stream in Latay and vestiges of former houses.
Mazaugues – Pivaut ice house
Departure from Mazaugues (Var)
A lovely hike up to Pivaut ice house (1880), which has been beautifully restored.
Baou des 4 Auros
Departure from Ollioules (Var)
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.
Tourves: Saint-Probace - Caramy Gorges
Departure from Tourves (Var)
A beautiful hike in the hills of Tourves.
A remarkable view over the Saint-Maximin plains and the mountain La Loube.
Wonderful opportunity to discover and tour the Saint-Probace Chapel
Baou de Quatre Ouro (576 m) and Croupatier via the caves path
Departure from Ollioules (Var)
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.
Château du Diable and the Destel Gorges in Ollioules

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)).
Tour and climb the Gros Cerveau of Ollioules

A beautiful hike to the heights of Ollioules and Sanary, off the beaten track. Exceptional views over the on the coast of La Ciotat in Porquerolles, and the interior of La Cadiere d'Azur in Revest, the chain of the Sainte Baume ridges and the gorges of Ollioules.
The path alternates between shaded areas in the Mediterranean scrubland and parts where the sun heats the limestones of the La Colle massif.
The Giens peninsula
Departure from Hyères (Var)
Beautiful hike around the Giens peninsula by the beach path.
The Janas via Notre-Dame du Mai
