Six-Fours-les-Plages: loop between sea and mountains

This loop requires good physical condition, but remains accessible to all levels. If you're not fully fit, just allow enough time to go at your own pace.

The route forms a loop, with a departure and arrival at the Ollioules SNCF station. Very quickly, you arrive along Bonnegrâce beach, on a very pleasant secure cycle path.

As you advance the coastline and its reliefs take shape. You first see the cliffs of Côte Six-Fournaise appear and in the distance the foothills of the Sicié massif. Before tackling it via the Gros Pin climb, don’t hesitate to stop at the Jardin de la Méditerranée or at the typical little port of Brusc to soak up the atmosphere. The Cape Sicié massif immerses you in a typical Mediterranean natural setting with its pine trees and its views of the sea.

On the way down, the route passes beautiful architectural works: Fort Balaguier which today serves as a naval museum and the Levant Bridge which is worth a stop. You can even climb to its summit to enjoy an impressive 360-degree view.
