Chapelle du Saint-Pilon

Perched on a rocky summit in the Massif de la Sainte-Baume, this small stone chapel rewards you with sweeping Provençal views after a hike through lush, quietly magical forests. It sits a little off the main tourist trail, so you get the experience without the crowds — several different paths lead up, meaning you can mix up the route. A genuine hidden gem in the Var countryside near Brignoles.
