This hike begins in the hollow of the Marseille hills... We will quickly sink into the Provençal scrubland by a path at the bottom of the valley while gaining a little altitude.

Arrived at the pass, we will walk on the ridge which will reveal to us over the steps, several successive points of view both on the immensity of the massif and its reliefs, the city of Marseille and its symbols.

From up there, the picture of the Mediterranean Sea, its islands, the limestone cliffs as well as the turquoise blue waters of Sormiou is grandiose!

We then descend gradually to the latter to discover all its jewels, strolling through the alleys of cabins, admiring its coves and swim, as well as its rich heritage.

This place reflects the Marseille art of living.

Belle randonnée. La guide était professionnelle et agréable.
Le rythme un peu trop rapide à mon gré mais les randonneurs sympathiques.
Je conseille vivement d'être en bonne condition physique et d'avoir des chaussures de randonnée.
