The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small forest picnic area 5 minutes from Baume-les-Messieurs, quiet at night despite nearby light-traffic road. Two stone tables, natural setting, hiking trail access. Muddy terrain in rain, poorly maintained infrastructure (damaged tables, moss, overgrown vegetation). No services.
Highlights
- Very quiet at night despite the nearby road
- Stone picnic tables
- Close to hiking trails in the Cirque de Baume
- Spacious natural forest setting
Good to know
- Poorly maintained facilities (broken tables, moss, tall grass)
- Muddy and slippery ground when it rains
- No working bins
- Difficult and barely passable access path
Motorhome access : Natural site prone to mud in rain. Narrow access and poorly maintained path. Few spots available. Maneuvering tricky.
