Things to do in Goult, France

A stroll through the picturesque streets is the first thing you should do upon arrival in Goult, where you can discover the ruins of the old ramparts, the cultivated terraces, visit the Roman church and sit with a drink in the shade of the many ancient olive trees and fruit trees lining the village.

Walking, hiking and cycling are popular activities in Goult, and the beautiful surrounding countryside is an ideal location in which to do it. It is just a 3km to both the neighbouring villages of Beaumettes and Saint Pantaleon.
