5 good reasons - OT Frejus

I am Frejus.

Meet the Esterel

Esterel - forced out of the bowels of the earth by volcano activity. Proud. Imposing. A challenge waiting for you to tread its trails on foot, horseback or mountain bike. Sometimes a garrigue landscape, sometimes maquis, with the wild smell of thyme, lavender and rockroses it is a green paradise full of secrets, cosseted by the discreet fauna.

Provence style markets

When the markets set up in the historic heart or on the waterfront all the colours, scents and flavours explode under the sun. After strolling between the stalls, it's time to sip a drink on a terrace listening to the laughter and the warm Fréjus accent. Then dip into Provence's gastronomy, sharing a meal with family or friends.
