Landmark Tourist Spot Must See
Trek along the rustic Mediterranean scenery at Massif de l'Esterel, a protected mountain range spanning the French Riviera. The sight of these craggy porphyry cliffs fringed by dark vegetation and rising above an azure sea has inspired many writers and painters. Rugged terrain with deep ravines and old cork oak forests provide shelter to red deer, foxes, and wild boars. A national forest extends for 130 sq km (50 sq mi), crisscrossed with hiking and mountain biking trails featuring maritime and stone pines and strawberry trees. Enjoy the sound of cicadas and inhale the scents of rosemary, thyme, and lavender.

    Eruptive rocks in deep reds are reminiscent of the paintings of the Fauvists and in this magnificent setting the remains of the defensive elements built in haste by the Germans recall the summer fighting 44 and the vagaries of raw power.

    A nice number of small roads to find picturesque corners and picturesque, clinging villages. However there is an atmosphere approximations or unfinished in urban planning, roads, storage and cleanliness
