Description

Embark on an adventure on a via cordata route nestled in the heart of the Calanques National Park. Discover the rich flora and fauna, as well as the history and issues surrounding this National Park. You will have the privilege of being able to access the very tip of Cap Sormiou, usually accessible only to experienced climbers, and of being able to swim in the blue lagoon at the back of the Capelan sea cave! This course is suitable for everyone aged 10 and over. It requires the ability to walk on trails and to complete easy rock climbing sections. There will be several stops where you can take a swim. This is a fantastic opportunity to cool off, such as in the blue lagoon at the back of the cave. After meeting at the Decathlon Bonneveine parking lot, we will carpool to Calanque de Sormiou. Once in the parking lot of the calanque (paid – €10.00), we will go through the safety briefing and put on the gear before we can start the activity! The route consists of a 20-minute approach hike, a section of roped-up aerial hiking, a rock climbing traverse, and then a short 5-meter rappel that takes us to the very tip of Cap du Bec de Sormiou. The rest of the course is more fun, with a zip line just above the sea, followed by a second zip line in a sea cave and a 20-meter rappel. The return walk back to the parking lot takes 20 minutes.
