The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Peaceful parking alongside the Doubs river, in a dead-end location near the Thoraise tunnel (historic canal feature). Very quiet nights despite daytime hikers, cyclists and anglers. No services available, shaded under trees. Easy access for campervans. Popular for quiet overnight stays and visiting the historic tunnel.
Highlights
- Exceptionally peaceful at night despite daytime traffic
- Calm natural setting by the Doubs river
- Tourist attraction: tunnel accessible on foot
- Nice shade provided by the trees
Good to know
- No services available (water, electricity, restrooms)
- Mosquitoes reported in summer
- Noticed occasional unpleasant smells

Motorhome access : Very good: large parking lot, tarmac all the way, easy to maneuver. Access looks tricky but no real difficulty. Confirmed suitable for a 6.5 m motorhome.
