Nans-les-Pins is a village in the Var, at the foot of the Sainte-Baume massif, in a Provençal landscape of hills, forests and limestone ridges. It has the feel of a rural village surrounded by nature, suited to walks and stays that combine exploring the village with outdoor activities. The massif attracts hikers and visitors interested in its wooded scenery and religious heritage.

In the village, Saint-Laurent Church and the ruins of Vieux Nans provide points of interest for a walk through the streets and traces of local history. Sainte-Baume Golf Course offers a different activity in hilly surroundings. Further afield, the massif is home to Sainte-Marie-Madeleine Cave and the Saint-Pilon Chapel, sites associated with a pilgrimage route and reached by trails. Sainte-Baume Managed Biological Reserve is another place to discover the forest’s natural habitats. The surrounding area is suited to hiking and cycling; a car makes it easier to travel between villages and trailheads.

Spring and autumn are good times for walking, with temperatures generally milder than in midsummer. In summer, plan to set out early for exposed routes and leave time to enjoy the terrace on your return. You could start the day by exploring Nans-les-Pins, then continue along a trail in Sainte-Baume. For a more leisurely outing, combine a walk around the village with a break in the garden. The region is also worth visiting out of season, when the trails are quieter and the Provençal hills take on different colours.
