Calanques de Cassis

I was in the Calanques yesterday: a small range of limestone inlets between Marseille and Cassis. Jagged and stunning. It's the first day of reconnaissance for a self-guided walking tour that Walk Inn will have on its website within the next few weeks.






One of the paths I took, which looks worse than it actually is: up the natural limestone steps. I guess you could call this an easy scramble...





The first Calanque reached: En Vau





The Port-Miou Calanque, closest to Cassis, lined with boats







Arriving by foot in the centre of Cassis. It's quite a beautiful port town: a small pictureque harbour, quiet cafés and restaurants, and just a handful of narrow cobbled streets in the centre:





At dusk just before leaving.



Check out our website within the next few weeks: we'll have the holiday online !!!
