The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small forest spot near Chauvet 2 cave, accessible by small van or 4x4 with multiple parking options along a narrow track or at a rocky end-point offering stunning panoramic views. Access is tight and rocky, unsuitable for large campers (frequent side scratches). Daytime tranquility compromised by occasional night noise from cave shows (until 1 AM summer months) and mosquito issues at dusk. Parking on loose stones requires careful maneuvering.
Highlights
- Spectacular panoramic view at the end of the road
- Peaceful and secluded in the forest (daytime)
- Accessible by small van and standard cars.
Good to know
- Narrow and stony access; large vehicles often get scratched.
- Nighttime noise disturbances (Chauvet Cave events until 1 AM)
- Heavy mosquito activity in the evening; parking on unstable gravel
Motorhome access : Very narrow and rocky access, not recommended for large motorhomes or vans (e.g., Master L2H2). Low-hanging branches. Small vans and 4x4s recommended. Low-pressure tires advised. Parking on unstable stones. Clearing may require a machete.
