Sormiou Calanque Hiking Activity

On our Sormiou Calanque Hiking Activity from Marseille, we'll walk to one of the largest and most spectacular coves in Calanques National Park.

Sormiou Calanque Hiking Activity

We'll begin our hiking route from the Chemin de Morgiou car park. The hike will lead us to the Sormiou creek, an important natural feature of the Calanques National Park.

During this 3-mile (5-kilometre) hike, we'll pass through a scrub forest en route to the Sormiou Ridge. From this rocky outcrop, we will have views of the massif, the Mediterranean Sea, and the city of Marseille.

We will continue to the cove of Sormiou, where we will visit its small fishing village and beach. Participants may take a swim in the turquoise water if they wish.

After the swim, we will start our return journey, following a different route that highlights the nature, history, and culture of Calanques National Park, a significant protected area in southeastern France.

We will return to the starting point three and a half hours after our departure, concluding our hiking activity.
