Great bike trip
AnneMarie_F, Oct 2024
We had a great time. We biked for 4 hours with the most beautiful scenery in the national park. Vincent was a great guide and extremely helpful during the trip
Great tour of the area with skilled guides
Nathan_E, Oct 2024
We had a great experience on this cycling tour. There was a very large group of us doing the tour so we were split into 2 groups of about 8-9 each. Our bikes were all set up in the shop then off we went. Our guide made sure to check up on everyone, assigning one of the more confident tour members to remain at the back to account for everyone while he drifted back and forth, giving directions when needed at the front then checking on everyone along the way. We had plenty of stops for applying more suncream and filling up water bottles at the various water fountains in the area. We went at a steady pace, nothing too strenuous - the electric bikes definitely were needed for a large hill we climbed. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking to get outside of Marseille and see the local landscape, it was definitely worth it.
Excellent bike experience

Awesome time with our guide Martin showing us through the national park and learning some of the history of Marseilles.
Amazing experience!

My husband and I took this tour and it was the highlight of our vacation. The Calanques National Park was so beautiful and the e-bikes made it an exciting experience. There were some challenging hills and riding on the streets with cars, so you should be comfortable riding a bike, but the e-bike made it all doable.
Itinerary
Parc National des Calanques
The Parc National des Calanques is an area of incredible beauty, diverse landscapes and unique cultural heritage. Located in the South of France, and spanning 20km of coastline between Marseille and Cassis, it’s the only European national park to encompass land, sea and urban areas.
2 hoursCalanque de Sormiou
Sormiou is the biggest Calanque of the National Park. We arrive from the top with a breathtaking view. From spring to autumn we go down all the way to the sandy beach to have a swim there. A must see!!! The rest of year we take a different route also very nice to discover others paths. We go down to Sormiou or Morgiou depending of the level of the group, the attendance and the weather conditions.
30 minutesCalanque de Morgiou
Among the thirty Calanques in the National Park, Morgiou is the only one with Sormiou to be inhabited. Who could imagine that here is hidden a little fischermen village surronded by limestone cliffs. We often take a break here to swim or have a drink.

30 minutesCalanque de Callelongue
There is an air of the end of the world here. The road that goes to Les Goudes winds for several kilometers along the seaside. Many surprises await us here. We make a break at Cap Croisette to discover a hidden port with diving center here.
15 minutesEVTT Provence
