Special equipment

As of the 1st November 2021, motorists in the 48 French departments across the mountain ranges are obliged to be equipped with snow tyres for the winter (you can also opt for 4 season tyres, offering the same level of performance all year round), or snow chains inside the vehicle, to use if needed.

You must therefore make sure you have the following for your car:
either snow chains for at least two drive wheels,
or winter tyres for at least two drive wheels (even though it is recommended to equip all four tyres for better grip on the snow).

Some recommendations:
– Make sure the chains are easily accessible so you don’t have to empty the boot of your car to find them, if needed!
– Remember to pack a pair of gloves and a headlamp!
