Both races finish at Chamarel. Transport is provided for all back to the Petrin parking.
THE CHAMAREL ROAD remains under works so we have spilt the navette return in two-stages: Chamarel to 300m past Varangue sur Morne in one navette, then passengers will walk 150m past the roadworks, and be collected by another navette to go to Parakket & Petrin. Thanks for your co-operation. Please do not interfere with the roadworks and keep to the asphalt.
