The shuttle service
This service provided by the Verdon Natural Regional Park enables hikers to reach the Blanc-Martel trail from La Palud-sur-Verdon, leaving their vehicles in the dedicated parking areas.
The shuttle will run
- from April 19 to June 30 and from September 20 to November 3 : week-ends (Friday, Saturday and Sunday, as well as public holidays and long week-ends)
- from July 1 to September 15 : every day
Please see booking page for the days and times it runs.
In the morning, from La Palud-sur-Verdon, it serves Chalet de La Maline (Blanc-Martel trailhead) and the return journey in the afternoon goes from Point Sublime (trail end) to La Palud-sur-Verdon.
NB : The shuttle does not go to Chalet de La Maline in the afternoon : you have to park in the village of La palud-sur-Verdon.
Depending on the time of year, the shuttle bus is connected with the ligne régionale 450 (Riez – Castellane), which enables you to come and hike in the Gorges without your car (from Castellane / Riez / Roumoules / Moustiers-Sainte-Marie).
