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

Departure from Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône)
A very beautiful route, but demanding due to its distance and elevation gain. The scenery is extraordinary throughout the route.
We set off at 7.30 am from Callelongue and took 11.5 hours, including a 1-hour break during the day. Using the Visorando GPS app, I recorded 2,768 metres of elevation gain and 2,718 metres of elevation loss, which is significantly higher than stated in the description. You will need to leave a vehicle at the car park at Calanque de Port Miou upon arrival.
