Hiking the Calanques and Sainte Victoire Mountain

We rate this tour as a 3 / 5. The hiking trails are moderate, with some steep climbs and descents, particularly on the Calanques and Sainte Victoire Mountain. While the terrain offers stunning coastal and mountainous views, participants should be in good physical condition, as the walks can be demanding, especially on hot days. However, there is no technical scrambling involved, and most of the paths are well-defined, making it suitable for experienced hikers or those with good fitness.
