Le Castellet: medieval village and Paul Ricard circuit

The name covers two different destinations. The fortified old village, with its castle and craft shops, overlooks the Bandol vineyards. The Paul Ricard circuit lies about ten kilometres north on the Le Camp plateau, with its hotel and airfield. Tell us which one you need, as the access roads differ.

The driver takes the A50 towards Toulon (toll included), then country roads to the village or the circuit. On race or test days traffic on the plateau is heavy, so book early and allow extra time.

Do you drop off at the circuit on event days?

Yes, at the drop-off point authorised by the organiser. For the return, book a fixed time in advance: taxis are scarce there.

Village, vines and racetrack

The fully restored fortified village is one of the most visited in the Var, its lanes lined with craft workshops and small shops. The Paul Ricard circuit on the plateau hosts test sessions, races and driving days. For an event at the track, a single vehicle with driver drops the whole team at the gate the organiser indicates, with no parking pass to worry about.
