Grimaud Village

Saracen village not far from the coastal hustle and bustle

A little inland, about 5 km from the bustling coast, you will find the high medieval village of Grimaud-Village, which is particularly notable for its 11th-century castle ruins and beautiful views of the Bay of St. Tropez. The charming town with its old alleys and fountains is beautifully restored and it is best to explore it on foot, as some of the streets are very narrow and many are barely passable by car.

Sightseeing tours

There are guided tours with information on the historical background in different languages – to be booked at the Office de Tourisme in Grimaud.

La Garde Freinet

If you want to go a little further into the hinterland, you should take the well-maintained road to “La Garde Freinet” and visit this likewise charming village at an altitude of approx. 370 m.

Horseback riding

In addition, you can book beautiful excursions on horseback through the riding stable “Ranch la Mène”. Various routes of different lengths are offered.

Flea market

Also worth a trip is the large Sunday flea market “Le Jas des Roberts” on the D14 in the summer always Sundays from 5 pm to 2 pm. At other times, a restaurant can be found there.

Restauranttipps

In Grimaud-Village you will find numerous restaurants, bistros and bars with offers in a wide range of price ranges. Certainly worth a visit is the L‘ecurie de la Marquise in the center of Grimaud. Very cozy restaurant with beautiful vaulted ceilings and traditional cuisine. Also highly recommended, but in a higher price category, the restaurant Les Santons located on the Route Départementale D558.
