Description

"La Mère des Fontaines", coin calme au-dessus de Forcalquier. À l'ombre, à l'écart de la petite route peu fréquentée, au bord d'un petit chemin de cailloux non fréquenté (un joggeur matinal), à l'abri des regards (espace parmi les arbres). C'est plat. Chouette coin de baignade plus haut : remonter la piste puis le cours d'eau, une cascade, puis encore plus haut un plan d'eau grâce à un petit barrage sur le ruisseau, un vrai secret spot !

The Camper’s take

Secluded, shaded spot above Forcalquier, accessed by a stony track. Flat ground tucked among trees, very discreet. Limited to 1-2 parking spots. Stream nearby with hiking opportunities and a hidden upstream basin (scramble access). Main drawback: water scarcity in summer. Suitable for vans and small motorhomes (up to 7 m). Very peaceful atmosphere.

Highlights

  • Very peaceful and remote
  • Generous shade (morning/evening)
  • Easy access to hikes and hidden pools
  • Flat and stable terrain

Good to know

  • Stream dries up in summer
  • Very limited access (only 1-2 spots)
  • Cleanliness varies with the seasons

Motorhome access : Gravel road in good condition, easy access. Only one space before the turnaround (mandatory for motorhomes over 7 m). Beyond this, terrain becomes more difficult and reserved for vans. Critical maneuver: do not go past the turnaround zone.
