The Camper’s take

Updated June 2026

Small picnic area nestled along a wild river, shaded by tall trees. Very quiet location on a low-traffic road. Discrete entrance between trees. Grassy terrain with nearby waste bins and basic picnic tables. Perfect for self-sufficient campers seeking peaceful nature. Morning hikers pass through occasionally.

Highlights

  • Exceptional peace and guaranteed tranquility
  • Picturesque natural setting by the river
  • Plenty of shade under tall trees
  • Secluded with no checks

Good to know

  • Picnic tables in poor condition
  • Intermittent unpleasant smells (from fields or litter)
  • Toilet paper scattered across the grounds
  • Hard to spot access, easy to miss

Motorhome access : Easy access but discreet among the trees. Grassy terrain with good maneuverability to find a spot. Very quiet road. No access restrictions indicated.
