Unique. At the entrance to the harbor you can also deal intensively with the history.

Attention: The "black route" (tracé noir) at Plage d'En Veau is NOT an official route! It's very steep, not a bit secured, and the markings are very sparse. Finding the way can lead to extremely dangerous spots and dead ends. NEVER go up there in rain or wet conditions!

A pretty tour with beautiful views, a bit of an up and down steep climb but accessible to everyone.

Very pleasant hike with optional swimming 😃. The route starts from the car park of the Presqu'ile de Cassis and crosses the coves of Port-Miou, Port-Pin and En-Vau. You have to leave early in the morning to walk in the cool and plan the outing for the day with a small picnic and plenty of water 😉. This is an …

August 2, 2024,Calanque de Port Miou zur calanque d’en vau – Schleife im Parc national des Calanques

Literally translated, a calanque is a narrow, deep bay with steep edges. Half an hour from Toulon, in Cassis we combine a coastal hike with the Calanque D'en-Vau. The goal: the picturesque, deserted beach of d'En-Vau.

At first we stroll quite casually past the marina of Cassis. After an initial climb we switch to mountain goat mode. The trail criss-crosses …

The originally downloaded tour is no longer possible. From the Calanque de Port Pin, the route follows a new path. The whole way also takes more like 4 hours. The descent to the Calanque de En Veau is high alpine. Sturdy shoes are required.

Difficult hike due to its altitude difference * but also due to the paths: very wide at the beginning, no worries.
Then the adventure begins; a lot of stones on the path, on the way back I wanted to go off the marked trails and it was a bad experience. Slippery rock.
For this hike I took walking poles, Camel …

Very pleasant hike without great difficulty except for the descent to the Calanque d'En-Vau, which is quite steep. Bring good shoes because the path is very rocky. It is imperative to take the panoramic path to admire the creeks from the top of the cliffs, magnificent view of the turquoise waters! Of course, plan something to swim in to cool …

From Port Pin beach, to continue towards D'En Vau, I recommend taking the panoramic path which, as the name implies, offers spectacular views of the two gullies in the face of a little more effort.

The second path, on the other hand, is perfect for returning home
On the other hand, I do not recommend the panoramic path on the …
