You are on vacation, determined to enjoy the natural jewels of the Provençal region. In your viewfinder: a languid day in the shadow of Cap Canaille or in one of the coves that border the Mediterranean, between Marseille and Cassis. Please note, access is regulated!
A cove, it is the possibility of enjoying a walk in the pines then swimming in crystal clear waters. Only here, in summer, are the forest areas which are part of the Calanques national park are more exposed to fire risks. Also, to protect walkers and the sites, access to the massifs is regulated. For pedestrians, the Envie de Balade system is renewed every summer.
Before going on a picnic, find out about access to the forest areas of the communes of Marseille and Cassis and in the sector of the commune of La Ciotat depending on the fire risk.
Depending on the weather conditions, access to the massifs is authorized:
- ORANGE: all day
- RED: only in the morning until 11 a.m.
- BLACK: prohibited all day
