The Esterel Massif, located between the Var and the Alpes-Maritimes, spans an area of 320 km², between the towns of Fréjus-Saint-Raphaël and Mandelieu-la-Napoule. This region offers spectacular landscapes, characterized by volcanic rocks with orange and red hues, shaped into rugged reliefs. The narrow valleys and ravines are covered with a dense Mediterranean forest, home to rich biodiversity.
The jagged coastline of the Esterel Massif is a favorite spot for those who appreciate stunning views. Its picturesque coves attract swimmers seeking tranquility, who come to cool off and sunbathe during the warm season. Among these landscapes, the Mont Vinaigre, the highest point of the massif at 612 meters above sea level, offers a stunning view of the Bay of Saint-Raphaël and the Bay of Cannes.
The Esterel Massif is crisscrossed by numerous walking trails, accessible to all levels. These routes allow you to explore this exceptional natural heritage in a serene and soothing atmosphere. Each trail unveils unique facets of the massif, including fragrant pine forests, steep cliffs, and hidden coves.
At the heart of the massif lies the peaceful Provençal village of Adrets-de-l'Esterel. Located just a few kilometers from the coast, this village offers an authentic and relaxing setting. From Adrets, a remarkable panorama stretches over the Bay of Cannes, the Esterel Corniche, and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. This village is an ideal stop to enjoy the serenity of the massif while admiring the breathtaking scenery.
