The Camper’s take

Updated June 2026

Large free gravel parking by the Ain river, very spacious and shaded. Flat terrain with direct water access (swimming possible but very cold water). Steady background noise from power station. Two areas: upper (picnic tables) and lower (main parking). Frequency varies seasonally. Cleanliness highly variable depending on location and period.

Highlights

  • Very spacious, little overcrowding if arriving early
  • Right on the river with swimming and fishing
  • Heavy shade under the trees
  • Flat terrain accessible even for large motorhomes.

Good to know

  • Constant noise from the hydroelectric plant
  • Very inconsistent hygiene: recurring litter, excrement, and cigarette butts
  • Unpredictable crowds: risk of nighttime disturbances (fires, noise, drug activity)
  • Water is polluted by bluish discharges from the power plant

Motorhome access : Easy access, flat and stable ground. Low parking area accessible even with a 7.4m vehicle plus trailer. Short but manageable downhill road. Prefer the upper area (tables) for quieter stays.
