Massif regulations
Every summer in the Var region, motorized traffic, vehicle parking and hikers’ access to the massifs are regulated during periods of major fire risk.
To inform walkers of the possibilities of access to the Var’s forest areas, the prefecture publishes a daily map, from June 21 to September 30, showing the level of fire risk for each forest area, which can be used to regulate :
- penetration of massifs
- traffic
- parking on certain roads serving them
The level of fire risk varies from day to day, so be sure to check with a tourist office or the prefecture’s website before going out into the countryside.
