The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Free shaded parking area at Boréon, ideal trailhead for Mercantour hikes. Spacious flat spots, some riverside. Close to Parc Alpha wildlife park, cheese shop and restaurant. Access via manageable forest track. Generally quiet nights, busier weekends. No services (emptying/water at Saint-Martin-de-Vésubie). Warning: parked in restricted zones risk €135 fine, checked by ranger at dawn/dusk.
