Description

Petit parking ombragé le long de la route mais calme après 21h. Au bord du lac des vielles forges.

The Camper’s take

Small shaded parking lot beside an alpine lake, 10 meters from water. Quiet after 9 PM but road traffic during daytime. Walking distance to leisure facilities (beach, restrooms, snacks). Slightly sloped terrain with bins. Popular with anglers and hikers. Best visited in low season.

Highlights

  • Quiet at night after 9–11 PM with stunning scenery
  • Close to the lake and hiking trails
  • Shaded and well-maintained parking area.
  • Easy access to facilities (leisure base, beach, showers, toilets)

Good to know

  • Very lively and noisy during the day (road, tourists, fishermen)
  • Not suitable for motorhomes (limited spaces, uneven terrain)
  • Risk of checks (fisheries authority, night restrictions)
  • Ineffective solar panels (dense shade)

Motorhome access : Access possible but restricted: slightly sloped terrain, about 15 spots, site manager states it’s unsuitable for motorhomes. Better for vans. Easy maneuvering in main parking area.
