 Le Lavandou is the ideal departure point to discover La Môle, Le "Massif des Maures" (from the provencal Mauro "sombre"). A Paradise of chestnut trees and cork oaks,  the range has been able to keep intact an incredibly rich and varied natural environment. Tiny creeks alternating with small beaches, this shows that the coastline is not less hilly than the hinterland. From Rayol, taking the corkscrew route up the Col du Canadel, you'll rejoice in a dream panorama toward the Îles d'Or. At the summit less than a few kilometres you can escape into the quiet lanes of picturesque villages such as (La Môle, Gassin, Cogolin, La Garde-Freinet, Collobrières...) villages whose identity is in history
