Hilltop
villages
Perching on hilltops or clinging to mountainsides, the Fayence-area
hill-top villages have stood the test of time. Discover and enjoy their labyrinthine
mediaeval lanes, their tranquil squares, their fountains, their traditional Provenal-style
dwellings. Lakes, ponds and streams offer plenty of opportunities for fresh-water
fun.
Hiking
385 km of marked footpaths and trails
in the area, with 83 km that are adapted for mountain biking and horse-riding.
The network of walking trails is outlined in the guide book Le pays de Fayence
pied and the map ( 1) is available in tourist offices and local shops for
