Description
Base de la Roche. Grand parking au bord de la rivière Ain. Très tranquille, un peu de bruit à cause de la centrale électrique, se garer plutôt au fond, petite route qui descend, mais pas très long. Deux tables de pique-nique sur le parking un peu avant. Camping interdit
The Camper’s take
Large free gravel parking by the Ain river, very spacious and shaded. Flat terrain with direct water access (swimming possible but very cold water). Steady background noise from power station. Two areas: upper (picnic tables) and lower (main parking). Frequency varies seasonally. Cleanliness highly variable depending on location and period.
Highlights
- Very spacious, little overcrowding if arriving early
- Right on the river with swimming and fishing
- Heavy shade under the trees
- Flat terrain accessible even for large motorhomes.
Good to know
- Constant noise from the hydroelectric plant
- Very inconsistent hygiene: recurring litter, excrement, and cigarette butts
- Unpredictable crowds: risk of nighttime disturbances (fires, noise, drug activity)
- Water is polluted by bluish discharges from the power plant
Motorhome access : Easy access, flat and stable ground. Low parking area accessible even with a 7.4m vehicle plus trailer. Short but manageable downhill road. Prefer the upper area (tables) for quieter stays.
