In the Bouches-du-Rhône, from June 1st to September 30th inclusive, access (including by sea), traffic and presence of people and work in forest areas are regulated by prefectural decree and can be regulated by municipal decree. These danger levels are determined daily by forest massif and by city/town. They can be consulted from 6pm. Except in exceptional circumstances, this information is valid for the following day. It is therefore important to refer to it before starting any hike.
