Evenos
On route N8, between Marseille (55km.) and Toulon (13km.).
Discover the small village of Evenos in the Var and the ruins of its castle
Curiously perched on steep slopes, Evenos is a group of old houses dominated by the remains of a castle. The village's main street ends at the foot of the keep. The Chemin de la Ronde offers a view from La Ciotat to the Toulon roadstead, and (for those not prone to vertigo) the deep fault line of the Gorges d'Ollioules.

The Cimaï cliffs
Many tourists visit this unique site in our region. On the way up to the old village, you'll find a well-known climbing spot: the Cimaï Cliffs, still being quarried 20 years ago for marble.

A commune made up of three hamlets
The commune is made up of 3 hamlets, all of which are quite different and well worth a visit:
Evenos
Built on an ancient volcanic site, this historic village has risen from the ashes around a feudal castle built in the 11th century. The hamlet is fascinating for its unique black basalt buildings. The medieval architecture blends perfectly with the volcanic rock, creating a mysterious atmosphere that transports visitors to another time. The recently restored 13th-century church of Saint-Martin is home to some remarkable architectural treasures. Its two-bay bell tower is a rare example in the region.

Le Broussan
Nestled at an altitude of 300 meters, this authentic hamlet stands out for its privileged position beneath Mont Caume, the highest point in the Toulon region at 801 meters. A small, old-fashioned church dedicated to Saint Joseph adorns the village's central square. Hikers are particularly fond of the trails that wind through the garrigue and Mediterranean forest. A magnificent panorama awaits visitors, with breathtaking views over the surrounding countryside.

Sainte Anne d' Evenos
This is the most recent hamlet, and it's around it that urban development is taking place. Despite its more recent past, Sainte-Anne is not without charm. As you leave the gorges, you'll discover the Sainte Anne sandstones, made up of limestone mamelons and cavities sculpted by time.
