The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small gravel parking near Cabane Vauban and coastal hiking trails, with bay and Mont-Saint-Michel views. Slightly sloped terrain, generally quiet at night. Narrow access requiring careful maneuvering with low branches (~2.60m clearance). No facilities. Heavy daytime foot traffic from hikers. No height barrier but occasional gendarme patrols reported.
Highlights
- Ideally quiet nights for sleeping
- Spectacular coastal hiking trailhead
- No height barrier
- Right next to the Vauban hut with open views
Good to know
- Very narrow access with tricky maneuvering for long motorhomes
- Low branches all along the access path (risk of scraping)
- No services available (no bins or water points)
- Police present; overnight bivouac legal status unclear
Motorhome access : Difficult access: extremely narrow road (~2.30 m wide) with low branches (~2.60 m clearance), uneven terrain and potholes. Manoeuvring is complicated. Not recommended for motorhomes over 7.50 m or with high equipment (solar panels, roof lights). Some suggest entering via the exit. Best to arrive off-peak or late afternoon.
