Holiday all year round, 4 beautiful seasons ( ) to come and discover from "le Vieux Mûrier".
When the heat of the summer gives way to the mildness of autumn, the Var area has so much to offer still as trees don their autumnal colors and their leaves end up flying away.
But summer’s end does not mean the end of activities!
Here are some ideas to make the most of your stay in Lorgues in this season.
1. Chemin du Train des Pignès – A 20km loop between Lorgues and Flayosc in Provence.
"le Vieux Mûrier" is directly accessible from this this 20km loop between Lorgues and Flayosc.
The trial is a gentle half-day ride through woodland and vineyards of the central Var. Both villages have plenty of cafes and bars, and if you cycle on a Tuesday morning you can enjoy Lorgue's marvellous Provençal market. But what makes this ride really special is that the outward leg follows part of the old railway line that once linked Nice with Meyrargues, just north of Aix.
2. Warm up to some local specialty food.
Granted, in autumn the days are not always warm and sunny. Sometimes greyness and rain turn up at the party. How do you get through these less colourful days? Treat yourself to a meal in one of the restaurants in Lorgues and surrounding villages.
A nice little dish puts warms the heart and makes you forget that it is raining outside (don’t forget your umbrella all the same). After all, isn’t autumn the season for foodies?
You can find our recommendations on our website or make your own discoveries. From simple dishes to "haute cuisine" (Michelin star rated) , you can find it all in a 20 kilometer perimeter.
