Free parking in the heart of Espalion, just steps from the castle and historic town centre (5-minute walk). Large surface with some flat areas, accessed via narrow streets requiring caution. No confirmed services. Generally quiet at night, ideal for exploring the old town. Full sun exposure, no shade.
