The Camper’s take

Updated June 2026

Spectacular bivouac site within an abandoned military fort, 300 m up a gravel track accessible to small vehicles. Highly praised for stunning 360° Alpine views, peaceful nights, and natural wind shelters within the fort structure. Excellent for hikers and small campers. French access currently closed.

Highlights

  • Stunning 360° views of the Alps
  • Very quiet at night
  • Multiple sheltered spots within the fort
  • Access possible for small two-wheelers with ground clearance

Good to know

  • Road access on the French side closed since 2020
  • Final gravel track is demanding.
  • Weather conditions are key to check
  • Not suitable for large motorhomes

Motorhome access : 300 m gravel track, suitable for small 2WD campers with sufficient ground clearance. Not suitable for large motorhomes. French access currently closed.
