Getting to the Mont: car parks, shuttle, on foot

You cannot park at the foot of the Mont. The visitor car parks are 2.5 km from the rock; you pay on exit and the first 30 minutes are free. Detailed prices on the Car parks page.

The “Le Passeur” shuttle

The free shuttle leaves from the shuttle square (place des navettes), near the tourist information centre, and drops you 350 m from the ramparts. The ride takes about 12 minutes, with a wait of 12 minutes at most.

On foot

The bridge-walkway is 2.2 km long. From the shuttle square, allow about 10 minutes to the first hotels, 15 to the dam and 45 to the Mont.

According to the tourist office, the “La Maringote” horse-drawn carriage no longer runs.
