Getting there

Walking

If you are in the center of Chamarel village, start by walking towards the main road, known as Route 71. Head southwest on Route 71 until you reach the intersection with the road sign for 7 Colored Earth. Turn right onto 7 Colored Earth Road. Continue on this road for about 1.5 kilometers. You will see signs directing you to the Chamarel Seven Colored Earth Geopark along the way. The entrance is well-marked, and you can easily spot it as you approach.

Bicycle

For those who prefer cycling, from the main square in Chamarel, head towards Route 71 and follow the same path as pedestrians. Cycle southwest until you reach the right turn onto 7 Colored Earth Road. This route is slightly hilly, so be prepared for some uphill cycling. Follow the road for approximately 1.5 kilometers, and look for the signs indicating the entrance to the Chamarel Seven Colored Earth Geopark.

Public Transport (Bus)

If you prefer to take public transport, you can catch a local bus from the Chamarel bus stop. Look for a bus heading towards the '7 Colored Earth' or 'Chamarel' destination. The bus ride will take you closer to the park entrance, but you may need to walk about 15 minutes from the nearest bus stop. Once you get off the bus, follow the signs to 7 Colored Earth Road and walk approximately 1 kilometer to the entrance of the Chamarel Seven Colored Earth Geopark.
