ASK Martigues – Piste de l’Oratoire
About
PartielIn Martigues, nicknamed the Provençal Venice, the Piste de l'Oratoire run by ASK Martigues stretches its layout across 600 metres of outdoor track on the edge of the Étang de Berre. The site belongs to the Martigues karting sports association, which gives it more of a club feel than a commercial karting venue: driver atmosphere, competitive spirit, regular practice. It's an address valued by Provence drivers looking for an associative setting and a real progression context, halfway between Marseille and the Berre basin.
The 600-metre open-air layout offers a real driving course, in the open setting typical of the Côte Bleue. Several kart engine sizes are available depending on driver level, from entry-level models for younger drivers to punchier versions for regular competitors. Timed sessions are particularly valued on this site, where you cross paths with drivers training for regional championships. The site stays accessible for family initiation runs and hosts group events: birthday parties, outings with friends, and association sporting events.
Martigues is thirty minutes from Marseille via the A55, twenty from Marseille-Provence airport, and an hour from Aix-en-Provence. The region offers plenty to extend the visit: the Côte Bleue calanques, Carro harbour, Côte Bleue beaches, or a detour to the Camargue an hour away. For visitors from further away, the historic centre of Martigues with its canals and famous Mirror of the Birds is worth a stop before or after the karting session.
