A la découverte de la ligne ferroviaire de la Côte Bleue en TER ZOU !

### **New for 2026: in partnership with the Côte Bleue Marine Park, the Conservatoire du littoral and the La Voix de la Côte Bleue association.** Embark on a fascinating, narrated journey along the Mediterranean on the Côte Bleue line, an iconic railway linking Marseille to Miramas via the coast. **This railway line required the construction of 18 viaducts, 2 bridges and 23 tunnels, now listed in the 20th-century heritage inventory or registered as historic monuments.** Along the tracks, each stop is an intimate port of call where local identity is gently revealed, among fishermen, artists, railway workers, hikers and dreamers. **A true balcony overlooking the sea**, discover landscapes sculpted by wind and time, stations that have witnessed so many lives, and this audacious railway that challenges the rock to offer some of France’s finest railway panoramas. This journey is also a tribute to living heritage: **the Côte Bleue Marine Park, the Conservatoire du littoral and the La Voix de la Côte Bleue association are doing us the honor of joining us this year** to offer you commentary and discoveries about the Mediterranean Sea and its distinctive coastline. Finally, **Thierry Chauvelot, a Marseille and Rovenain painter, will give you a live-painting performance on board: an artistic performance consisting of painting a picture on canvas during the journey.** To take this train and benefit from commentary and anecdotes about the history of the line, **we recommend purchasing a special unlimited TER ZOU! travel pass offered by the Région Sud for the Heritage Days (pass valid for one day / €5), on sale on the website from September 10, 2026**: [https://www.ter.sncf.com/sud-provence-alpes-cote-d-azur](https://www.ter.sncf.com/sud-provence-alpes-cote-d-azur) , **at ZOU! spaces on regional automatic ticket machines, or using your fare benefits if you are eligible** (valid discount cards or subscriptions, for example) **Outbound journey:** **Saturday, September 19 at 10:51 a.m. by TER ZOU 879 724 departing from Marseille St Charles** (arriving in Miramas at 12:25 p.m.) **Return journey:** **Saturday, September 19 at 12:41 p.m. by TER ZOU 879 735 departing from Miramas** (arriving in Marseille at 2:14 p.m.) **Boarding and alighting at intermediate stations are unrestricted.** Thanks to the ZOU!
