Description
Parking bien situé, tranquille, à proximité du Puy Griou. Trés belle vue de la vallée. Aucune commodité.
The Camper’s take
Small village parking near Puy Griou and chapel with stunning views over the valley and Plomb du Cantal. Bitumen surface with slight slope, accessible to vans and motorhomes only. No facilities. Wild camping tolerated but effectively daytime only; fires strictly forbidden. Discretion required toward local residents.
Highlights
- Exceptional panoramic views over the valley and the Plomb du Cantal
- Peaceful once the day winds down
- Close to hiking trails
- Motorhomes and campervans only (less mass tourism).
Good to know
- No facilities (water, toilets, electricity)
- Daytime access in practice, despite theoretical bivouac permission.
- Potential friction with locals if not discreet
- Sloping terrain with limited capacity (only 5-6 actual spots)
Motorhome access : Gentle slope asphalt, limited access (5-6 cars or 2-3 campervans max). Hikers pass through from 8:30 AM. Difficult maneuvering in peak season; central spot used as a turning area.
