A mountain that stands out in the landscape
Mont Puget is anchored in the heart of the Calanques massif. Culminating at an altitude of 563 metres, it is the fourth highest summit, after the Carpiagne (648m), St Cyr (610m) and Lantin (570m) mountains.
It can be seen from everywhere and from its height, hikers can enjoy a limitless panoramic view of the city of Marseille, the big blue, the Frioul islands and the Riou archipelago, but also the Cap Canaille near Cassis, the Garlaban massif near Aubagne, and even the Sainte-Baume.
It dominates the vast domain and university complex of Luminy, which continues to expand at its feet in the foreground.
