Hiking the Sea Trail

The out-and-back trail is accessible to hikers, mountain bikers, and horse riders who will appreciate the breathtaking view of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
This beautiful, airy and shaded trail offers you a glimpse of the diversity of the flora of Gassin (pine forest, vineyard, oaks, broom, laurels).
You can enjoy the beach and swimming (supervised in season) before your return.

Practical information:
In summer, it is essential to check before your departure that the trail is not closed due to fire risk (information on the Var prefecture website or at the tourist office).
Along your route you will find a small ford which you can bypass if necessary by taking a path a little further to the right.
Also, be careful during hunting season not to use the path if it is blocked.
Be careful when crossing roads in the countryside without a protected crossing.
The path allows you to join the protected multimodal track to reach Port Grimaud on your left and Saint-Tropez on your right.
