In order to preserve the western tombolo of the Giens peninsula and as part of the Grand Site Operation of the Giens Peninsula and the Salins d’Hyères, the City of Hyères and the TPM Metropolis have set up a small train for the past 3 years linking the Almanarre (Biancotto) car park to the village of Giens and with several stops on the beaches.
A road that narrows over the years
Given the narrow width of the salt road, the fragility of the western tombolo, and the desire to have an attractive mode of transport for visitors, the solution of a small tourist road train has been chosen since the summer of 2021. For the 2024 season, as was already the case the year before, there will be 2 small trains that will rotate and cross. They will run continuously, from July 1 to August 31, 7 days a week, from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
