The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Gravel parking directly on the Dordogne riverbank in remote nature. Excellent swimming spot. Access via unmade track, final meters steep and muddy—difficult without 4x4. ⚠️ WARNING: protected Natura 2000 zone, camping prohibited by prefectural order. Very high fine risk. Reviews mixed: some report peaceful atmosphere, others note canoe traffic.
Highlights
- Excellent swimming with shaded spots
- Very peaceful and solitary natural setting at night
- Direct river view with local wildlife
Good to know
- Natura 2000 protected area: camping prohibited, fines up to €2,500+
- Very difficult access in wet season, not recommended without 4x4
- Canoes pass by during the day, with potential crowds
Motorhome access : Accessible but tricky. Unsealed track in good condition until the last meters: steep incline, muddy area. Gravel maneuvering possible without 4x4 (reversing OK), U-turn impossible without. Alternatives 20-30m from the shore.
