Marseilles / Aubagne

From the Logis hotel La Fenière, you can take several marked hiking trails revealing superb landscapes.

The oldest city in France, Marseille is full of cultural, architectural and artistic riches, the result of a veritable melting pot of civilizations linked to its openness to the Middle East, Southern Europe and North Africa. The heart of the Phocaean city beats around its Old Port, its fish market and its lively quays protected by its two forts, Saint-Nicolas and Saint-Jean. From the Old Port to the creeks, passing through the picturesque Panier district with its typical tall houses with their colorful facades and the cornices facing the sea, you will be seduced by the cosmopolitan charm of the first French port.

Well beyond petanque and OM, Marseille is revealed behind many monuments and emblematic sites such as: the Château d'If; the Docks; the Stock Exchange Palace; its famous Canebière; its unmissable Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica, famous “Bonne Mère”; the sumptuous Palais Longchamp in which the Museum of Fine Arts is located; the cathedral of the Major; the Vieille Charité, a hospice which now houses the Museum of Mediterranean Archeology and the Museum of African, Oceanian and Amerindian Arts; the Hôtel Dieu or even the most recent MUCEM, Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations, high place of architecture and heritage.

Between Marseille, Toulon, Aix-en-Provence, the Camargue, the Luberon, the Gorges du Verdon and its magnificent lakes, there is definitely no shortage of ideas for discovery and everything is quickly accessible from the hotel La Fenière.
