Trek along the rustic Mediterranean scenery at Massif de l'Esterel, a protected mountain range spanning the French Riviera. The sight of these craggy porphyry cliffs fringed by dark vegetation and rising above an azure sea has inspired many writers and painters. Rugged terrain with deep ravines and old cork oak forests provide shelter to red deer, foxes, and wild boars. A national forest extends for 130 sq km (50 sq mi), crisscrossed with hiking and mountain biking trails featuring maritime and stone pines and strawberry trees. Enjoy the sound of cicadas and inhale the scents of rosemary, thyme, and lavender.

  Road of Saint Raphael in canes. Stunning beauty of the red rock in contrast to the blue of the sea and the green vegetation. Many places to stop and make the most of the beauty of the place. A little before canes observe on the right the bubble palace of Pierre Cardin great originality and very beautiful. Small coves to cool off by being careful to get down

  Beautiful place with exceptional views, if you're lucky you'll see the wild boar too.

  Paysages magique on ne se lasse pas de ces roches rouges qui tombent dans la mer, une pure merveille. Beaucoup de mini arrêt pour les voitures le long de la route, souvent des escaliers cachés dans la nature pour descendre aux criques les plus paradisiaques, il y a longtemps que nous n'avions pas vu une eau aussi limpide.

  Magical landscapes we do not get tired of these red rocks that fall into the sea, a pure Marvel. Many mini stops for cars along the road, often stairs hidden in nature to descend to the most paradisiacal coves, long ago we had not seen such crystal clear water.
