The trail begins with sea-salt air and the low clack of electric motors as a small group slips out of Cassis toward the limestone spine of the Calanques. Hills roll like weathered waves; scrub pines lean toward the Mediterranean and rocky inlets glitter below. Your guide sets the pace, and the e‑bike presses you up slopes that would otherwise be a long push.

History
Cassis grew as a fishing and wine village; the calanques were historically isolated coves used by fishermen and small-scale vineyard growers on steep terraces.
Conservation
Calanques National Park restricts access during high fire risk and limits development; stick to marked tracks and avoid swimming in sensitive marine areas to reduce impact.
