The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Free overnight spot by the Moselle River near Metz. Two main parking areas suitable for small campervans and vans (maneuvering challenging for larger vehicles). Trash disposal available, no water or electricity. Peaceful daytime atmosphere with walkers and anglers. Moderate highway noise audible but not disruptive overnight. Ideal for a short autonomous stay.
Highlights
- Idyllic natural setting by the water
- 20 minutes on foot from Metz

Good to know
