Description
Petit parking à l’entrée de la forêt de Toffou.
The Camper’s take
Small shaded forest parking at the entrance to Toffou Forest, 25 min from Nantes. Very quiet at night, ideal for autonomous stopover. Access via Château Gaillard street (potholed road). No services. Variable daytime foot traffic with hikers and joggers; occasional noisy youth gatherings. Cleanliness inconsistent. GPS navigation tricky.
Highlights
- Peaceful nights and a calm natural setting
- Shaded with a beautiful forest for morning hikes
- Close to Nantes but still secluded
Good to know
- Access via a very bumpy road with potholes
- Unpredictable crowds, sometimes noisy with motorbikes and young people
- No services; full self-sufficiency required
Motorhome access : Extremely potholed access road. Small parking area, possible maneuvers but limited space due to piles of rocks. GPS signal unreliable; use Rue Château Gaillard all the way.
