43600, Sainte-Sigolène
Been here?
Quiet natural spot beside the Villars pond, surrounded by conifer forest and suitable mainly for vans. The pond has a pontoon, a small bridge and a walking route around it, but its water is green and stagnant. Access is steep, sandy, slippery and very bumpy, so arrive and leave via La Peryere. Camping cars may find the access difficult, while anglers, walkers, motorcycles and quads use the area during the day.

Yes, well, avoid it with a motorhome… suitable only for vans
Great spot! Right on the shores of Villars pond
Very beautiful place, pleasant pond with very few visitors. A jetty allows you to take beautiful photos by the water. You can walk around the pond (small bridge). Attention: arrival and departure are easier via La Peryere!
Superb place, the conifer forest is very beautiful, with its moss creating a hushed atmosphere. The pond is pretty but very green. The only drawbacks: The access is indeed slippery (sand) and steep, with fairly significant bumps. Be careful with low vehicles. There was a little plastic litter scattered everywhere under the trees where we had set up.
A beautiful place to spend the night while passing through Lyon or on the way back
Great location, beautiful surroundings for nature lovers. Forest and small lake. Be careful: both access roads are very difficult for motorhomes. To get there, both roads slope downhill, but leaving is much more difficult, with a risk of getting stuck due to the soft ground.
Quiet and pleasant place; the access roads make you do a bit of off-roading. Forget the idea of swimming, either for yourself or your four-legged friend—the water is stagnant and green.
Great place. Very calm and peaceful. Perfect for settling in during the day and overnight! During the day (weekend), the place is frequented by fishermen and hikers, with a few motorbikes and quad bikes using the surrounding paths. But it remains fairly quiet.
Great quiet place to spend the night. Suitable for several vehicles.
