Dynamic medieval town<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nestled atop a volcanic rock at the gateway to Toulon<\/a>, the old village of La Garde has preserved its medieval character. Along its 3 km of coastline, pine-covered cliffs reveal secret coves, ideal starting points for underwater excursions. Inland, you can wander through over twenty hectares of forest and a hundred-hectare plain, in an ideal setting for nature observation. Throughout the seasons, La Garde offers a wide range of cultural events, including the famous “m\u00e9di\u00e9vales”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A village on the rock <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For a first glimpse of the town, climb up to the old village. Set on a rock formed by a fissural eruption, this medieval town has everything to charm you: cobbled streets, shady squares and preserved ramparts that testify to the town’s rich heritage. From the chapel of Saint-Charles-de-Borrom\u00e9e to the remains of the castle at the top of the rock, a circuit is laid out, with some thirty explanatory plaques. From the top of the 70-metre rock, take time to contemplate the panoramic view over the city. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

The departmental nature area of Le Plan<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of urban life, yet on the edge of town, the departmental nature area of Le Plan<\/a> is a haven for local flora and fauna, as well as migratory birds <\/strong>. Located in a wetland area, Plan de La Garde features a pond <\/strong>for birdwatching. Walking, cycling, running, children’s games and horse riding are just some of the ways to discover the 135 hectares of<\/strong> this rejuvenating site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the highlights of La Garde’s festive calendar is Les M\u00e9di\u00e9vales<\/strong>, an event that takes you back to the time of the knights. For three days in August, bravery and honor mingle with medieval dancing and epic jousting. As the days grow shorter and the air becomes milder, the streets of La Garde are decked out in enchantment to welcome the Hivernales. Nearly 100 chalets stand proudly, for a festive Christmas market <\/strong>where the spicy scents of comforting beverages and hot chestnuts enchant the senses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hidden coves<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Garda coastline is rich in flora and fauna typical of Mediterranean shores. At Anse San Peyre<\/a>, a secluded spot adorned with colorful fishermen’s cottages, the steep cliffs and lovers’ grotto are a haven for wilderness<\/strong> enthusiasts. Not far from there, Anse Magaud<\/a>, lined with pine trees, with its intimate, transparent waters, is ideal for an aquatic stroll on its underwater trail. From June to early September, you can admire the seabed<\/strong> of our Mediterranean along the signposted route.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
