The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small free gravel parking in open countryside near Colombiers village and the Canal du Midi. Access is challenging: narrow road (2.10 m), potholed track, poor signage. Capacity 7-8 motorhomes. No facilities on-site. Village amenities and cycle path nearby. Very peaceful location but requires careful navigation when arriving.
Highlights
- Extremely quiet and natural, perfect for resting
- Close to the village with shops, a restaurant, and a cycle path
- Free with good capacity (7-8 campervans)
- Pleasant scenery with walking trails
Good to know
- Very difficult access: narrow road (2.10 m wide), potholed and poorly marked.
- No services at all (water, electricity, bins, lighting)
- Poorly maintained dirt parking, sometimes muddy after rain
- Abandoned campervan and fallen tree degrading the area
Motorhome access : Very tricky. Access road to the village is just 2.1m wide, bordered by concrete blocks, with a potholed dirt track. Tight maneuvering required. Vans and small motorhomes recommended. Plan your route carefully (use D6009 if your vehicle is wide). GPS is unreliable—don’t follow it blindly.
