problem posed by 500,000 cars on this fragile site.<br\/>In 2012, the new system was implemented with to restore wetlands with:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Large tree-lined parking lots a little further from the mountain<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vegetated dikes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A hydraulic system to maintain wetlands<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reversible shuttles (that can be driven in 2 directions!)  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Yes, parking has a cost. But the shuttle is free, and so is admission to the mountain. And it&#8217;s a price per car, not per person!  <br\/>Compared to the entrance fee for a visit to a ch\u00e2teau, for example, we find this reasonable.<\/p>\n\n<p>We think it&#8217;s great. This makes arriving on the mountain by shuttle or on foot even more spectacular!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Normandie-Lovers\/Mont-saint-michel\/Infos\/i-g7Fpknb\/1\/f1f5c7fa\/L\/shuttle_mont_saint_michel-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Getting to Mont-Saint-Michel\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Getting to Mont-Saint-Michel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Arrival by car at Mont Saint-Michel<\/h3>\n\n<p>When you arrive at Mont-Saint-Michel, be sure to follow the signs for the parking lots and shuttle bus.<br\/>We&#8217;ll explain the different parking numbers in the next section.<\/p>\n\n<p>Above all, don&#8217;t go to &#8220;La Caserne&#8221; or &#8220;Mont-Saint-Michel&#8221; where there&#8217;s an entrance barrier.

Pontorson.<\/p>\n\n<p>Please note: do not park along the road when leaving the parking lots on the mountain. Unauthorized parking is very dangerous.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parking at Beauvoir &#8211; free parking Mont-Saint-Michel  <\/h3>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Normandie-Lovers\/Mont-saint-michel\/Infos\/i-k8JFJ3P\/1\/44cd4d80\/L\/parking_gratuit_mont_saint_michel-3-L.jpg\" alt=\"Free Beauvoir parking lot\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Free Beauvoir parking lot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>Beauvoir is the closest village to Mont-Saint-Michel. It&#8217;s less than 5 minutes&#8217; drive from the official parking lots.<br\/>Here you&#8217;ll find hotels, restaurants and stores.<br\/>On-street parking is free, as is the small 20-space parking lot between Saint-James and &#8220;L&#8217;\u00e9picerie de la Baie&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n<p>From Beauvoir, you can reach Mont-Saint-Michel by bike or on foot.<br\/>Don&#8217;t walk on the fast road!<br\/>There&#8217;s a lovely car-free path along the River Couesnon with a constant view of the Mont.  <\/p>\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a 30-minute walk to the Mont-Saint-Michel dam or to the shuttle departure point.<br\/>Then a further 20\/30 min to reach the mountain if you go completely on foot.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\"

you can finish by bike.<br\/>Or take the local bus from the station to the mountain in 25 minutes (with 3 to 8 round trips a day).  <a
