Description
Place relativement plane en bord de route pour aller au cirque d'Archiane. Table de pique-nique, et petit sentier qui descend vers une autre table de pique-nique et le torrent en contrebas. Très calme, route très très peu passante la nuit. Jolies vues et proximité de circuits de randonnée, notamment liés à la réintroduction des vautours dans la région. Restaurant (très bon apparemment, mais c'était complet) au refuge du village d'Archiane (pensez à réserver au-moins 48h à l'avance voire 1 semaine en ce moment...).
The Camper’s take
Small roadside parking area, very quiet at night, with picnic tables and access to the stream below. Ideal starting point for hiking and vulture watching in the Archiane cirque. Panoramic views. No official services. Light traffic. Swimming possible but water is very cold.
Highlights
- Very quiet and peaceful at night
