Description
Grand parking très prisé pendant les belles journées mais à partir de 16 h beaucoup de places disponibles. Départ idéal pour la Tournette. Restaurant/gîte à proximité.
The Camper’s take
Large mountain parking at 1,500 m, ideal base for Tournette hiking trail. Dry toilets, bins and water available. Access road narrow and steep, sloping parking with tight spaces. Stunning views over Lake Annecy. However, overnight parking is now prohibited: check signage before arriving. Refuge-restaurant nearby.
