The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Rustic high-altitude camping (1000 m) at the foot of Monte Cinto, nestled under century-old chestnut trees. Spacious shaded pitches with stunning mountain views, warm welcome from owner Jean. Ideal for hikers. Very basic but generally clean facilities. Minimal infrastructure: no shop or bar. Excellent starting point for mountain ascents and river swimming. Natural, informally maintained terrain.
Highlights

- Absolute peace, authentic and paradise-like natural surroundings
- Owner Jean is very friendly, welcoming and helpful
- Large spacious shaded pitches, free choice of location

Good to know

- Minimal infrastructure: no shops, bar, or additional services
- Road access via D84 is difficult and winding (not recommended for large vehicles)
- Hot water is inconsistent by the end of the day
- Basic greywater drainage (drains into fields)
