Description

Petit étang perdu en pleine forêt dans la réserve naturelle du haut Jura, 2 tables de picnic, quelques randonnées et belvédères à proximité.

The Camper’s take

Small forest lake in Haut Jura nature reserve with two picnic tables. Access via initially rocky track, then stabilized. Very peaceful atmosphere, minimal nighttime traffic except morning/evening anglers. Ideal for vanlife and couples seeking quiet nature. Main lakeside parking possible but sometimes muddy or taken by fishermen; alternative forest spots available. Flies reported in summer.

Highlights

  • Absolute peace in a preserved natural environment
  • Ideal for small campervans and vans
  • Peaceful forest landscape with picnic tables

Good to know

  • Initial access is rough and difficult to maneuver for large motorhomes
  • Muddy patches depending on weather; flies in summer
  • No trash bins, no sanitary services

Motorhome access : Access via stony forest track initially, then stabilized. Tricky for motorhomes over 2.5m tall. Small vans pass easily. Muddy when wet. Difficult to turn around; better to drive deep into the track.
