Camping La Rouvière Les Pins: discover the wonders of Peypin

The village of Gréasque, a former mining town benefits from a privileged location between Aix, Marseille and Aubagne. In the village center, beautiful gardens have been set up in the sixteenth century castle’s area that belonged to the family de Castellane. The mining museum is locatet within the Hély Oissel wells. The forests of the Communal Domain which extend to Europe’s oldest mining town’s remains offer pleasant walks, and can be explored by mountain bike or on horseback.

This hike leads to the summit of Garlaban, where you can discover the Douard engravings. The Garlaban, which rises to 714 metres, is easily distinguished when you're in the south-eastern part of the Bouches-du-Rhône département. Whether arriving from Toulon or from the sea, it dominates the landscape. Its shape is so distinctive that it served as a landmark for sailors navigating the Marseilles roadstead. Some even describe it as the crown that sits atop a hill so dear to Aubagne-born writer Marcel Pagnol. The Garlaban and its surroundings, whether in Marseille or Aubagne, were Marcel Pagnol's favorite playground as a child. He later made it a central element in his work. Let's recall the opening lines of his first novel, "La Gloire de mon père": "I was born in the town of Aubagne, under the goat-crowned Garlaban, at the time of the last goatherds. Garlaban is an enormous tower of blue rock, planted on the edge of the Plan de l'Aigle, the immense rocky plateau overlooking the green Huveaune valley. The tower is a little wider than it is tall: but as it rises out of the rock at an altitude of six hundred meters, it towers high into the Provencal sky, and sometimes a white July cloud comes to rest there for a moment. So it's not a mountain, but it's no longer a hill: it's Garlaban." The starting point for the hike is at the "Gastaude" bus stop, where there is also a parking lot. Join the Chemin du Ruissatel and follow the brown signposted path "Font de Mai, sentier Marcel Pagnol". Enter the Font de Mai park and pass in front of the large bastide. After the bastide, fork left to join the Font de Mai road, which you can follow along a path that runs between oak and pine trees. You'll pass an excellent gourmet restaurant, l'Auberge la Ferme. At the crossroads with Chemin du Ruissatel, continue straight ahead on Chemin de la Font de Mai, which winds its way up to Col d'Aubignane. From here, follow the yellow markings to the Garlaban. Shortly afterwards, there's a narrower path on your right. Follow it until you reach a sign suggesting a 100-metre detour to the Manon cave. Then return to the gently ascending corbelled path. Pass the Col Salis and continue on to the Pas Garrigue, a small steep slope, as we like them in Provence, to reach the Col du Garlaban. From here, it's just a short climb to the summit of Garlaban. The path zigzags through the garrigue. Yes, it's tough! But the panoramic view from the summit is your reward. It's sublime! An orientation table helps you decipher the landscape at your feet. You are the kings of Provence. Return to the Col and turn left onto the wide path leading down to the plain. On either side of the path, you'll discover engraved stones. The path overlooks the Draioulet valley, whose name comes from "petite draille", a reminder that it was once a transhumance route used by shepherds. A shortcut takes you straight downhill for 250 metres, avoiding 4 bends, before reaching an intersection where you must turn left to reach the park and the Font de Mai bastide more directly. After a 950-meter walk, you reach the edge of a hill. 4 circular cement shapes (remnants of an old high-voltage line support?) are the markers for turning left onto a path that zigzags downhill. Another landmark you'll pass: the ruins of a sheepfold. You then come to a wide DFCI track which you must take to the right, rounding a hill dominated by a rocky peak. Keep to the path along the rocky ridge. The Font de Mai estate can also be reached via an alternative route at the bottom of the valley, but the view is less unobstructed. Finish the hike by following the same section back to the parking lot or bus stop.

Perched at the foot of the famous Blue Mountain, the Sainte-Victoire, this former mining village, partly restored, has been built next to the railway station and the railway line. In the the village’s steep streets, admire the medieval remains and go under beautiful antique doors. As it is often the case in Aix, you will spot “Cézanne’s mountain” points of view; the mythic mountain, like waves of mineral foam bounding the red and black Arc Basin. The highest sites of the municipality offer breathtaking views of the Mont Sainte-Victoire’s Pic des Mouches (1 100m).

Simiane is the oldest village in the Bouches-du-Rhône located on the northern slope of the Chaîne de l’Etoile. Discover the astonishing richness of its fauna and flora by moving closer to the canyon walls with its canopy of flowers. Before heading back to the village, look up to your left, to the Rock of Castrum and catch a glimpse of the Clock Tower. It was an ancient watchtower built in the 13th century. You can visit the of St. Peter Parish Church built in the 18th century, before stopping at the 18th century castle transformed as a City Hall.

This walk takes you through the peaceful Saint-Pierre district, in the heart of the city of Marseille. It's best known for its cemetery, established in the mid-19th century. Today, families love the area, which boasts schools, numerous shops, a village atmosphere and good transport links (tramway, metro, bus and main roads). The starting point for this exploration of the neighborhood is the "Sainte-Thérèse" streetcar stop, on the T1 line towards "les Caillols". Follow Boulevard Sainte-Thérèse until you reach the rear of the Saint-Pierre church (1). Join the church square and admire the Art Deco facade on your right. At the corner of the square, turn right into rue Pascal Ruinat, which leads to the Louis Loucheur housing complex (2). After crossing the housing estate, whose facades are painted in a monochrome of orange, follow the railroad tracks to reach boulevard Daumas. At the end, turn right under the arch. You're now on the chemin de Saint-Jean du Désert. When you reach the traffic circle, turn left onto boulevard Jeanne d'Arc and walk back towards the railroad (3). You'll pass the Cristal Limiñana company (4) and the cabaret l'étoile bleue (5). Continue straight ahead on boulevard Jeanne d'Arc (6) until you come to the church of Saint-Pierre, then turn right. Rue Ruinat (7) leads to Rue Saint-Pierre (8). If you're observant, you'll notice that the Saint-Pierre district is home to many small buildings with tiled roofs, representative of traditional Marseille architecture. Turn left into rue Saint-Pierre and drive 300 meters to the main entrance to the cemetery (9). It's like entering a hemicycle extended by a vast magnolia-lined avenue. On either side of the alley are the tombs of the Marseilles bourgeoisie, who made Marseilles famous from 1850 onwards (10). Walk straight ahead to reach a little-known site: a military crypt (11). Continue straight ahead until you reach the 4th intersection (12), then turn left until you reach the depository. Turn right and climb the stairs. On the way, you'll come across several remarkable graves (13) and (14). Go straight on until you reach a staircase, then turn left to reach a secondary gate which takes you out of the cemetery. Go left down rue Saint-Pierre until you reach the remains of an aqueduct on your right (15). Continue straight ahead, skirting the streetcar tracks (16) and (17). The walk ends at the "Saint-Pierre" stop on tramway T1, which takes you back to the city center.

Then take the same route back to the Carrefour de l'Oratoire junction (point 3). 3- Turn right and continue the descent via Chemin des Roys, following the yellow markings. Pass by the Source de Nans spring and stay on the main path. 5- At the Placette des Trois Chênes plot, with your back to the sign, take Allée Royale on the far left to the wooden bridge you took earlier and head back to the starting point. VARIANT: After visiting the sanctuary of Mary Magdalene's cave, go back down to the Carrefour de l'Oratoire junction (point 3) and continue the descent via Chemin des Roys until you reach the Placette des Trois Chênes plot (point 5) and directly return to the starting point.

This itinerary lets you explore the Réformés district on foot, ideally located in Marseille's 1st arrondissement. Come and discover the many architectural curiosities hidden within. In the Réformés district, you'll have to look up to see the sights we're about to show you. The starting point for this walk is opposite the Eglise des Réformés (1), built in neo-Gothic style. Although its spires rise to a height of 75 meters, it holds no special place in the hearts of Marseillais. Walk up the Cours Franklin Roosevelt until you come to the Maison Castel (2). Retrace your steps and turn right into rue Saint-Savournin. Cross Boulevard de la Libération and continue straight ahead on Rue Bernex. When you reach boulevard Longchamp, walk a few meters down the boulevard to stop briefly at number 18. This is where you'll come across the first high relief dedicated to the Virgin Mary (3). Cross Boulevard Longchamp and take Boulevard National almost opposite to reach the building at number 9 (4). Continue along rue de la Rotonde, which runs along the north side of the Picon factory. Number 63 is the birthplace of Gaby Deslys, the internationally-renowned (in her day) singer and music-hall star who owned a sublime "folie" on the Corniche, the Villa Gaby (285 Corniche Kennedy). Admire the decorative elements of the entrance porch at number 16, headquarters of the "Les Excursionnistes de Marseille" association (5). A few more steps and you'll arrive at Place Alexandre Labadie (6). Turn right into Rue des Héros and follow it all the way up. At the far right, you'll see a large statue of a golden Virgin (7). Staying on the sidewalk on the Virgin's side, walk down Boulevard de la Liberté, looking up to admire the richly-decorated façade with its expressive faces and cat's mouths. The entrance, at number 46, is also adorned with two atlatls. However, we can't tell you the name of the architect. It's not known. At 23 rue de la Grande Armée, you'll discover a Greek Orthodox church (8). Then you reach Square Stalingrad, where you'll find a beautiful Art Nouveau fountain, the Danaïdes fountain (9). This square is particularly pleasant, as it is well shaded. Go downhill a little further and take the allée Gambetta. Three points of interest stand side by side: The Monument des Mobiles (10), the Byzantine building (11) and the Zarafa giraffe (12). The stroll ends on the upper part of the Canebière, renowned for its cultural and leisure establishments: the Artplexe cinema (13), with its rooftop café-restaurant, the Théâtre de l'Odéon (14) and the Théâtre du Gymnase (15).

Follow this short stroll to discover the Saint Charles neighbourhood. When one mentions the name Saint-Charles, the SNCF station (1) is the first thing that comes to mind. Indeed, it stands out for several reasons. But it is also a neighborhood that has been transforming for several years and is becoming an university hub that we will introduce to you. We suggest arriving at Saint-Charles by metro and crossing the hall to reach Narvik Square (where the current drop-off point for motorists is located). On your left, first notice a stele (2). If you look further to the left, there is a large 15-story building in yellow/beige. In front of it stands the Golden Virgin (3). Cross the square to access the station's "masterpiece": its staircase and panoramic view of part of the city (4). Admire the sweeping view of Boulevard d'Athènes, the street art mural (5), and Notre-Dame de la Garde Basilica. Walk along the other side of the station to reach stairs that lead to Boulevard Maurice Bourdet. Cross and descend Boulevard Charles Nédélec. At the third intersection, turn right onto Rue Joseph Biaggi where you'll find the Bourse de Travail (6). Continue straight and skirt around the EMD Management School. Go up Rue Frédéric Ozanam until you reach Avenue du Général Leclerc, which you descend on the left. On the other side of the boulevard, you'll see the Saint-Charles campus, the original university site. Notably, there is a large rectangular peristyle building (7). Then you pass by a stele dedicated to General Leclerc (8). A flight of stairs takes you to the foot of the Toyoko Inn hotel (9). Enter on the left into Porte d'Aix Park (10). Follow the central path to reach the forecourt of the Arc de Triomphe (11). As you can see, this area designed by Euroméditerranée has undergone a major transformation over the past decade. Until recently, the A7 motorway divided the neighborhood in two, as it ended at the triumphal arch. The area is transforming with the construction of new student residences, numerous schools, the consolidation of three universities (specifically, the faculties of architecture, landscape, and urban planning), the creation of an inter-university library, and most importantly, the addition of a major asset: the inauguration of a brand new park in the heart of the city. The Saint-Charles district now positions itself as an urban campus. For more information: www.euromediterranee.fr In line with the Arc de Triomphe, cross Boulevard Charles Nédelec. In front of you, Rue d'Aix descends, which changes names several times over more than 6 kilometers, to reach the Mazargues district. It is one of the main north-south axes of the city. Sharpen your gaze, you should at least see the column of the fountain in Place Castellane, located 2 kilometers away. Finish your visit at the forecourt of the Regional Hotel, Place Gilberto Bosques. The Regional Council consists of two buildings that were built between 1984 and 1991 in the Butte des Carmes district. The forecourt of the Regional Hotel houses 3 remarkable elements (12).

Take a free tour of the Noailles district, also known as the belly of Marseille. Noailles is made up of narrow streets where Marseillais come to stock up on spices, condiments, flavors and fragrances of all kinds! You'll find ingredients from all over the world. Exoticism guaranteed. The discovery of the Noailles district begins on the Cours Saint-Louis (2), Marseille's "ground zero". Since 1927, it's here, precisely at the corner of the Canebière and Cours Belsunce, that the numbering of buildings along all the city's streets has been determined. It's also kilometer zero for measuring the distance between Marseille and other French cities. Cours Saint-Louis extends into rue de Rome. Turn left into rue Méolan, where you'll find the famous shop founded by Père Blaize (3). At the end of the street, turn right onto rue d'Aubagne. At the next street, turn right again onto rue Vacon. On your left is rue Halle Delacroix, with its outstanding exotic goods merchants, such as Tam-Ky. Cross the square to reach rue Rouvière and continue up it to the left. Turn left down rue d'Aubagne to the crossroads with rue Longue des Capucins. This is where you'll find Saladin's cave of 1,000 spices (5). Continue straight on to the district's only fishmonger, du Lamparo, at the corner of Marché des Capucins and Marché de Noailles. Turn left down Rue des Feuillants onto La Canebière (1). Walk down the Canebière, then turn left into rue des Récolettes, where you'll discover another of the city's outstanding shops: the "Empereur" hardware store (8). Take time to explore this store, which is approaching 100 years of existence. There's a beautiful section of antique toys upstairs. As you leave the store, the neon sign of the Cours Saint-Louis pharmacy will lead you back to the starting point of this tour.

This easy walking tour combines beautiful facades along the streets with panoramic views and grand monuments. The route is suitable for strollers. * The itinerary begins on the Canebière, a mythical and historic artery, lined with majestic facades, which in its heyday was home to grand hotels and the most beautiful cafés in Marseille. At number 9 is the Palais de la Bourse, the chamber of commerce and industry. Rue Beauvau leads to the Opera House. It was partially destroyed by fire in 1919, hence its Art Deco facade. At the back of the building. * Turn right onto rue Francis Davso which leads to the Cours Estienne d'Orves. A real city within the city, the Arcenaulx were the former warehouses of the arsenal of the royal galleys at the time of Louis XIV. Today, this Italian-style square is an attractive district with its cafés, restaurants and artists' galleries. * Parallel to this is the Rue Sainte, which leads to the Abbaye Saint-Victor, join it. Stop at the Four des Navettes, the oldest bakery in Marseille (1781) where you can taste the navettes, a dry orange blossom cookie typical of Marseille and very popular with gourmets. To the right of the Bertie Albrecht square, enjoy the panoramic view of the Old Port and the old city. * Then head for Fort Saint-Nicolas (17th century), the work of the Chevalier de Clerville. During the construction of the Palais du Pharo, the fort was cut in two, in order to create an access road and that is why today, Fort Saint-Nicolas is composed of Fort d'Entrecasteaux for the upper part and Fort Ganteaume for the lower part. * When you arrive in front of the gates of the Palais du Pharo, cross the public garden which offers other magnificent views of Marseille.

"An oppidum, in ancient times designated a kind of citadel, a fortified natural eminence and therefore suitable for defense." "Among the oppida established in Ligurian Provence is the highly strategic one at Saint-Marcel. The site on the Baous de Saint-Marcel plateau covers three hectares at an altitude of 167 meters: it occupies a platform protected by steep cliffs on the south and west sides, with the land sloping steeply to the north. The oppidum was built like a fortified village. Dwellings were erected close together. The floors were made of clay-bound pebbles, and the streets were very narrow. The presence of springs at the foot of the cliffs also explains the choice of this location, and at least one well was established in this fortified enclosure, which offers us the finest visible archaeological site in Marseille after the remains of the Bourse." H. Hardouin. It was listed as a historic monument on August 23, 1990.
