The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small natural parking with stunning views of Pic de Bure (2708 m), ideal for hikers. Water point confirmed (spring-fed fountain at nearby shelter). Access via narrow road, challenging ford passages, suitable only for vans. Spectacular scenery, very quiet in evening but busy early morning with hikers. Camping officially forbidden but tolerated. Caution advised: reports of squatters and stray dogs, dangerous road.
