The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Mountain parking in a clearing (La Borne au Lion, Crêt de Chalam). Very quiet at night despite daytime hiking traffic. Excellent base for trekking, mountain biking and horse riding (Crêt de Chalam 1h, 360° views). No services (no water, no electricity). Uneven, stabilised but sloping terrain. No mobile signal. Historic site (1944 resistance).
