Garage Vert

Been offered Garage Vert camping next year, apparently it's new! Anyone got any info on it location/price wise?

Interesting. Have always used Vert for parking. It is located on the inside of the Bugatti circuit between Chemin Aux Boeufs and Interieur Musee (on the inside of the track, below the Dunlop Bridge). Have only ever seen people bivouacing (sp?) next to their cars though. Sometimes in the past the ACO have used a field on the other side of Chemin Aux Boeufs, before the corner where Houx starts for overspill for Vert - maybe that's the location?

Prices for anything have yet to be announced to my knowledge. Last year Parking Vert was 45 Euros if memory serves correctly.

Entrance and grandstand prices advertised but nothing yet on camping

Not sure if this is last years plan but it is showing on the ACO site for 2009

I think it's last year's as Houx Annexe Nord won't exist. Unless I've misunderstood other posts of course...

Still Garage Vert is unlikely to move...

I know the plan is from 2008 but still if they plan a campsite on what they call Aire D'accueil Garage Vert that might not be such a bad spot.

It will be inside the Enceinte General, close to the track and next to the new track's entrance there's a rather large and clean toilet facility.
So in other words, a bit safer than HA-nord, closer to the track and with better facilities

Ten years ago that was our campsite, pay the car park charge and get the tents up. By the time they came to move us we had taken over the end of Garage Vert and there were too many to move! We played the same game for five years till they increased security manpower !!
