32km. from Draguignan, 27km from Grasse by route D562.

Tourettes, associated with Fayence, is a peaceful village surrounded by broom, d'olive trees and cicadas.
The pedestrian areas are a pleasant place for strolling with shady squares and narrow streets.

There you will discover the Clock Tower, and the interesting architecture of the Tourrettes Castle which has become a convalescent home.
The sea is close (30km) as are the mountains (20km.) so the choice of activities is diverse.

The Gliding Center, of international repute, is in the lower vilIage.
Because of its warm and dry climate, and the exceptional variations in altitude, Tourettes is a mecca for gliding enthusiasts from all corners of the world.
