This tour involves cycling through various scenic locations such as the beaches and relaxation areas of Pointe Rouge and Prado, the parks, and Château Borely, as well as the Corniche Kennedy, which offers views of the Mediterranean and the Frioul Islands. There is an optional ascent to Notre-Dame de la Garde and a potential detour to Les Goudes. The route primarily follows cycling paths, making it suitable for all participants regardless of fitness level or cycling experience. The tour includes explanatory stops about the history of the locations and designated photo opportunities. In case the minimum number of participants is not met, bike rentals with GPS tracking and necessary equipment such as a phone holder, helmet, lock, insurance, repair kit, and advice are available.
Notre Dame de la Garde is the iconic church of Marseille. From here, the panorama is superb at 360°. Affectionately nicknamed 'la Bonne Mère' by the locals, the interior of the basilica, with its Romanesque-Byzantine style, is well worth a visit.
Parc Borely, Marseille's largest green space, is remarkable for its French and English gardens, as well as its 18th-century castle-museum.
The Pointe Rouge beach is located right next to our facility. Water activities, dining options, and swimming contribute to the reputation of the place.
The Corniche Kennedy is a 3 km-long coastal road overlooking the sea. It is said to have the longest bench in the world and also the largest bike path in Marseille.
Perhaps our facility at Pointe Rouge is worth the trip alone! On a more serious note, on-site, you'll find a café, beverages, and luggage drop-off services, in addition to all the bike-related services, of course.
