The Camper’s take

Updated June 2026

Natural riverside spot along the Durance river with stunning views, peaceful in the evening and suitable for fishing. Close to forest, easy water access. Attractive wild location in winter but variable occupancy. Growing issues: visitor cleanliness, local patrols, possible camping-car ban, troublesome local youth activity. Road access in very poor condition.

Highlights

  • Stunning views over the Durance River
  • Quiet in the evenings, great for fishing
  • Peaceful, rural spot in winter
  • Rich local wildlife (bee-eaters)

Good to know

  • Road access is in very poor condition
  • Overcrowded in peak season, motorhome parking restrictions in place
  • Security concerns due to poor crowd control (police, local youth)
  • Mosquitoes around, algae in the water, no 4G signal

Motorhome access : Disastrous road access. Possible to maneuver but poorly maintained terrain. Locals reportedly prohibit motorhomes.
