The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Free parking area near the village tennis court in Fontanès, at altitude. Bitumen surface with slight slope; free water supply and wastewater disposal. Guaranteed peaceful atmosphere, within walking distance of bakery and grocery shops. Castle park and hiking trails nearby. Well-maintained by local council, ideal for a quiet stopover or night.
Highlights
- Remarkable calm and quiet

- Village with shops within walking distance
- Close to the castle park and hiking trails
Good to know
- Narrow and sloped access requiring caution

Motorhome access : Narrow and very tight access from the village (cambered bend); better to use the access road opposite. Slightly sloping terrain requiring chocks. Tricky maneuvering for larger vehicles.
