Village of Saint-Jeannet

Highlight • Settlement

Saint-Jeannet is a village perched at the foot of the baou de Saint-Jeannet, a sumptuous rock mass culminating at 800 meters from sea level.

Renowned for hikers and climbers, the baou dominates the Cagne valley where the ruins of an old fortified sheepfold like Le Castellet stand.

The village has many shops.

Rock before arriving at Saint Jeannet.

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very heterogeneous, this monumental rock decorates the path that brings us back to Saint Jeannet!

Notre-Dame des Baous Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

Perched at an altitude of 480 meters, the Notre-Dame des Baous Chapel dates from the 17th century. It offers a breathtaking view of the Var valley and the Mediterranean. A must-see site before or after a hike, just a few steps from Saint-Jeannet!

January 14, 2023,BAOU DE SAINT JEANNET, ET CIRCUIT DU CASTELET.

Essential hike in the hinterland of Nicois.
Remarkable for its panoramas, I encourage you to do it at least once.
She is from
medium difficulty and requires absolutely resistant shoes.

After the strenuous climb, you will be rewarded with a spectacular view. From the snowy Alps to Nice and the Côte d'Azur. During the descent you get the peace that you didn't have until the Baou (there are a lot of people on Sundays!)
