Set in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, the Var (83) is home to a wealth of forests that make it a true sanctuary for biodiversity. From the Massif des Maures to the Sainte-Baume Regional Nature Park and the Esterel, the wooded areas of the Var offer remarkable natural richness, with holm oak, cork oak, maritime pine, Aleppo pine and stone pine among the emblematic species. These typically Mediterranean trees allow owners to draw benefit in many ways: timber production, firewood harvesting, cork exploitation, and leisure activities such as hunting and hiking.
Owning a forest property in the Var, however, means complying with rules set out in the French Forest Code, such as those on tree felling and sustainable forest management. Tax advantages such as exemption from the Real Estate Wealth Tax (IFI) and relief on inheritance duties can encourage anyone looking to buy woodland. Statutory clearing of undergrowth and the upkeep of the massifs are also legal requirements, protecting the environment and preventing wildfires.
