The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Free parking beside Lac de Montagnes in the Black Mountains. Very calm, shaded environment with swimming and scenic walks (2.5 km loop). Marked pitches but heavily sloped (levelling blocks essential). Nearby services: water, waste disposal, toilets. Easy access. Note: day parking only (7am-10pm) since 2023, though local police messaging is unclear. Excellent for couples and nature seekers.
