Barjols is a Provençal village in the Haut-Var, built around old lanes, fountains and waterways. Its water-related heritage shapes a walk through the village, where you pass from small squares to stone façades and shaded passageways. The village suits those who enjoy exploring a small town on foot, taking time to admire its architecture and going on excursions in the Var countryside. Le Couvent des Ecrevisses is within the village, close to its visitor attractions.

The Maison régionale de l'eau, the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame de l’Assomption and the 1851 Resistance Monument are all in Barjols. Verdon Regional Natural Park is 7 km away, with landscapes of hills, gorges and lakes that are ideal for outdoor excursions. Nearby villages, including Pontevès, offer more opportunities to explore the Haut-Var. A car makes it easier to travel between the sights and neighbouring towns. Toulon-Hyères Airport is 51 km away; Marseille Provence Airport is 64 km away.

Spring and autumn are good seasons for exploring villages and hiking in milder temperatures. In summer, plan outings early in the day and leave time for breaks in the shade. You could start the day by exploring the fountains and the collegiate church, then take an excursion through the landscapes of the Verdon. Country paths and roads also offer cycling routes; water activities and walks in the fresh air vary according to the area you choose.
