Experience cable car<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For a few minutes, the very essence of Provence is before your eyes: city, hills, harbor and islands reveal the portrait of our destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This may result in access restrictions. It’s important to find out what you need to know before you go out so as not to put yourself in danger.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

A walk on Mont Faron is also an opportunity to explore an ancient fortified defense system: the Notre-Dame-du-Faron sanctuary, built in a former powder magazine, the Croix-Faron fort and the Grand Saint-Antoine fort are just some of the historic structures that offer a breathtaking view of the town and harbor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
