Very difficult
Departure from Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône)
The Cirque des Pételins is a sight of unparalleled beauty. It is a very little-used trail in the Calanques National Park of Marseille. A superb but demanding hike requiring sure-footedness, good physical fitness and the ability to use a GPS effectively in certain places where the path is harder to find. This hike is not circular; it requires a shuttle service between the Logisson car park and the Col de la Gineste car park.
Please note: you are hiking in a national park; please respect the rules and avoid straying from the paths. Before setting off, please familiarise yourself with the regulations of the Calanques National Park: Calanques National Park Regulations
