The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Small parking along the Rhône canal, less than 25 minutes from Lyon. Drinkable water available, calm and flat environment ideal for one night. Easy access except for larger vehicles (2.20 m height limit at main bridge). Area frequented by fishermen and morning walkers. Generally peaceful atmosphere with pleasant walks along the river, but busy on weekends.
