Trets is a Provençal market town at the foot of Sainte-Victoire Mountain, between the Aix area and the inland landscapes of the Var. Its old centre retains medieval gates, narrow streets and remnants of its fortified past. The town has the feel of a small town, with shops and everyday services, while hills and vineyards shape the landscape around the commune. It suits travellers who want to alternate heritage visits, outings in nature and days by the pool.

In the centre of Trets, the Porte Saint-Jean, Château de Trets and Jardin des Remparts offer a chance to discover local history on a walk. Notre-Dame de Nazareth Church completes a visit to the old town. For a longer outing, the Sainte-Victoire massif is known for its trails and panoramic views across Provence. Aix-en-Provence offers another excursion, with its old streets, fountains and museums. Marseille-Provence Airport is 36 km away; a car makes it easier to travel between the villages, natural sites and towns in the region.

In spring and autumn, the temperatures are well suited to walks in the hills and visits to villages. Summers are hot and bright, so it is best to plan hikes for the morning and enjoy the pool during the sunniest hours. You could start the day by exploring Trets’s historic centre, continue with a walk through the landscapes of Sainte-Victoire and finish on the terrace. Wine lovers can also spend time at the Provençal estates nearby, checking their visiting hours directly.
