(see my warning and danger tip!) leave a commentdirections: between marseille and cassis. take bus #21 to luminy and get out at the final stop. that is where the trail starts! rate not helpful 1 2 3 4 5 very helpful les calanques: calanques : from luminy : the nicest part !!!!tip rating: updated by ptitetoile on june 13, 2005email mesee my marseille pagesend to a friend by ptitetoilesend photo to a friendour first calanque hike was from luminy to callelongue...the nicest part of the calanque for me! in fact, it was a recommandation of a hiker women we met in the bus to go to luminy! it is in fact the gr along the sea. this gr can found on a map of ign-map (to buy in a library). luminy is the university village situated on the heights of the calanques. there are busses going to luminy quite often (every 15 minutes i think) and the journey lasts about 30 minutes starting from rue de rome. the hike takes about 6-7 hours (with some stops to take foot bathes) to callelongue. the most wonderful "calanques" are in the first part of the walk : calanque de sugiton, morgiou et sormiou. the path is there sometimes difficult (with a lot op ups and downs) but get easier and more flat at the end... leave a comment rate not helpful 1 2 3 4 5 very helpful les calanques: les calanquestip rating: updated by quinevere on january 10, 2003email mesee my marseille pagesend to a friend by quineveresend photo to a friendyou'll be welcomed by wild lavender before starting to hike the mountain of calanques in sugiton; water is so clear and you can see the bottom even at the top of the mountain; it's so windy at the top and my hat was nearly blown away; or you may go down the mountain and towards the beach, many young people go camping during weekend there.... take the metro line 2 from saint-charles towards the direction ste marguerite and stop at rond point du prade, then take bus 21 to 'luminy'....this is the cheapest way to get to the 'entrance' of this fantastic view. leave a comment rate not helpful 1 2 3 4 5 very helpful les calanques: calanque from luminy : calanque callelonguetip rating: by ptitetoile on july 5, 2005email mesee my marseille pagesend to a friendcallelongue by ptitetoilesend photo to a friendthe little calanque of callelongue is our latest calanque of our hike from luminy...we are finally in marseille. hidden behind rocks of saint michel (321 m, containing 3 grottos) and les goudes (258 m), it is the terminus of the coastal street, the "end of the world" of the inhabitants of marseille. it inspired a lot of movie maker : pagnol in "césar" (1936), verneuil pour "la table aux crevés" (1953),.... leave a comment rate not helpful 1 2 3 4 5 very helpful les calanques: calanques from luminy : the "garrigue"tip rating: updated by ptitetoile on june 20, 2005email mesee my marseille pagesend to a friendgarrigue of the calanques by ptitetoilesend photo to a friendthe garrigue is a low vegetation mix, characteristic of the chalky hills of the mediterranean, composed essentially of bushes (of which the broom, the juniper, the wild thyme, the rosemary and lavender) and of holly-oak. it is the consequence of the destruction, due to the slaughtering of wood, the culture and the fires, of the mediterranean forest that growed once in the region. this "garrigue" is the flora found in the calanques. you will find it for example here on the path from luminy university leading to the calanque of sugiton. leave a comment rate not helpful 1 2 3 4 5 very helpful les calanques: calanques from luminy : the calanque of sugitontip rating: by ptitetoile on june 20, 2005email mesee my marseille pagesend to a friendcalanque of sugiton by ptitetoilesend photo to a friendthis is my first impression of the calanques...not bad isn't it?
