The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small mountain parking overlooking the Alps at the edge of Pilat. Five marked gravel spaces with picnic tables and bin. Starting point for hiking and mountain biking. Quiet at night despite nearby road. Winding, sometimes narrow access roads. Recurring issue: manure/slurry odours depending on wind direction.
Highlights
- Exceptional panoramic view of the Alps
- Guaranteed quiet at night
- Direct access to hiking and mountain biking trails
- Clearly marked and level pitches
Good to know
- Manure or fertilizer smells unpredictable depending on wind direction
- Narrow, winding access with multiple options (some very steep)
- Little or no mobile signal depending on provider
Motorhome access : Very twisting and narrow access roads. Some steep sections (up to 24%). Tricky maneuvering; small to medium motorhomes recommended. Check route beforehand (several options, D138 is preferable). Possible with 3.5t, difficult beyond that.
