Randoxygène ‘Clues et Canyons’ guide: the Bendola in its entirety

Access

• You need 2 vehicles to make the 30 km shuttle. The easiest way is to park one in the village of Saorge, on the Fontan access side.
  With the other, follow the RD 6204 as far as St-Dalmas-de-Tende; turn right onto the route de la Brigue, go through the village and continue as far as the Notre-Dame-des-Fontaines chapel. Continue down the valley and turn right onto a forest track which climbs a long slope to reach the Sanson drop (4 x 4 vehicle recommended). Turn right to follow the track southwards on the Italian side, which leads to the ruined barracks below the summit of Marta, where you can park your vehicle.
