Beautiful road, very little traffic

Beautiful route under the cork oaks to the sound of cicadas with a glimpse of the Gien peninsula.

Brignolles is an old medieval town in the Var department with narrow streets, several squares and many cafes. It is located in a good place to access other areas of the region.

The Chartreuse de Montrieux is a monastery located on the foothills of the Sainte-Baume massif. It was established in 1137.

The Carthusian Order, known for its radical spirituality following the example of the hermit Saint-Bruno, settled here in 1137. This Carthusian monastery is therefore the 8th house of the order. Destroyed several times, the current buildings date from the 17th and 18th centuries. Abandoned during the Revolution, the monks returned again in 1843. Driven out once again in 1903 by the fanatical gentleness of the Republicans, by virtue of the famous law of 1901, the religious (14 fathers and 14 lay brothers) took refuge in Italy, at the charterhouse of Cervara. In 1936, the community of La Cervara merged with that of Montrieux, leaving the monastery of Cervara to return to Montrieux. In 2008, twelve monks of the order (seven fathers and five brothers) made this monastery still alive.

This lake has its legend: it was once said to be a wheat threshing floor. But on Sint-Anna, then a holiday, two miscreants came to collect their harvest. Then a mighty spring sprang up, which drowned mules and miscreants. At Sainte Anne it seems like you can still hear them spinning at the bottom of the water and cracking their whips. From the lake, on the south bank, we reach the maze of old streets of Besse, where it is good to walk.

With an area of 4 ha, it is 33 meters deep. Canals have also been constructed to supply it with water from the Issole.

Lake Besse is fed underground by a spring whose water comes from the St Quinis massif that surrounds the village to the north.
