The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small mountain lake with approximately 3-4 actual parking spots by the water. Very peaceful high-altitude setting with panoramic views, children's play area, and fishing access. Access road is narrow and winding from Montsalvy. No motorhome services (water, electricity). Wild camping officially prohibited by municipal decree since 1976, though overnight parking is tolerated in practice.
