Sentier Littoral, Coastal trail in Banyuls-sur-Mer, France.
The Mediterranean coastal path stretches for 32 kilometers between Argelès-sur-Mer and Cerbère, crossing rocky cliffs, secluded coves, and vineyards along the shoreline.
The trail section between Collioure and Cadaques was established in 1996, reopening ancient paths that connected fishing communities along the Mediterranean coast.
The path traverses landscapes that influenced works of numerous painters including Matisse, Dali, and Picasso, who captured the contrast between red cliffs and white Mediterranean buildings.
The route offers multiple segments for different skill levels, with the Port-Vendres to Banyuls section requiring 5 hours to complete 11 kilometers of challenging terrain.
Visitors can combine hiking with underwater exploration at Peyrefite beach, where a marked marine trail allows snorkelers to discover Mediterranean sea life.
