The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Large municipal pay parking in the heart of Pau city center, very close to the historic district and easy for city visits. Video surveillance. Originally designed for small campers (2 m height) but many larger vehicles park there without issue. Very affordable pricing (€1.50-3 depending on rates). Public toilets nearby. Tight barrier access, caution required for longer vehicles.
Highlights
- Very central, easy walking access to the town center
- Very budget-friendly prices (€1.50-3)
- Spacious parking with good asphalt surface
- Video surveillance, adequate security
Good to know
- Narrow and noisy entry/exit barrier, risk of damage for long vehicles
- Noisy in the mornings and on weekend evenings due to traffic
- Displayed height limit of 2 m often bypassed, situation unclear
Motorhome access : Access via a narrow barrier (2m height sign but often exceeded). Large, flat parking. Maneuvering easy but entry/exit tricky for long vehicles (>6.5m), risk of hitting the automatic barrier.
