The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small secluded forest spot near Annecy (20 min drive), at Saint-Jorioz with partial lake views. Uneven terrain with only 1-2 flat spots. Rocky access track challenging for cars. Trailhead location. Very quiet at night but used by hikers and runners during the day. No facilities, logging operations regularly obstruct access. Overnight camping recommended.
