GR®99

From Revest-les-Eaux to Trigance (Var)

The GR99 long-distance hiking trail connects the hills around Toulon to the gateway of the Prealps. It crosses the Sainte-Baume and Verdon Regional Natural Parks. The path climbs above the coastline before descending into the Var hinterland, traversing white limestone ridges and densely forested plateaus. Crossing the Sainte-Baume massif, hikers follow in the footsteps of Mary Magdalene towards her sacred grotto, a major pilgrimage site since the Middle Ages. Further north, the trail passes by old icehouses and agricultural terraces, remnants of a resilient rural economy in the face of the arid Mediterranean climate. The landscapes unfold with increasing intensity: the oak and beech forests of the Sainte-Baume give way to the plains of the Issole valley, then to the spectacular plateaus of the Upper Var. The arrival offers breathtaking views of the Verdon Gorges, where the limestone is sculpted into vertiginous cliffs.
