Escape the bustle of Marseille and embark on a guided hike through the breathtaking Calanques National Park in southern France. Stroll beneath fragrant pine trees and along scenic coastal trails, where dramatic limestone cliffs rise above the sparkling Mediterranean Sea.
Your knowledgeable guide will lead you to the park’s most iconic coves, sharing stories about the region’s unique biodiversity and its deep connection to Marseille. Along the way, take in panoramic views of the Frioul and Riou archipelagos and the towering Mont Puget, Europe’s highest sea cliff.
Pause at a peaceful beach to enjoy a picnic lunch, included in your experience, and take a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear waters. For those seeking adventure, there’s the option to swim to the secret Blue Cave, a magical grotto accessible by a 700-meter round-trip swim, depending on weather and sea conditions.
The hike covers approximately 7.5 kilometers with an elevation gain of over 250 meters, making it ideal for active travelers. Trekking poles are available upon request, and your guide ensures a safe and enjoyable journey for groups of four to thirty participants. Tours are offered in English and French.
This experience lasts about four hours, with time for hiking, relaxing, and swimming. The itinerary may be adjusted for weather or safety, and the Blue Cave visit is optional based on your swimming ability. Secure your spot today and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Calanques—spaces fill quickly!
