Railway-side nature, overnight trains
Chemin Latéral de la Rive Gauche, 73410, Albens
Been here?
A small nature parking area at the Étangs de Crosagny, beside a railway crossing and several walking routes. Trains still run between 23h15 and 5h45, and daytime traffic includes cars, tractors, walkers, cyclists, and passing trains. It is suitable for a break or possibly one night, but not recommended for large motorhomes and has no current shade.

The place is in the middle of nature, but trains do indeed still run between 11:15 p.m. and 5:45 a.m.
Perfect for a break, but we would not have spent the night there because it is really too close to the railway line for us.
We spent two nights here; quiet at night. Lots of cars because there are many hiking trails. Thank you to the hamlet of “Braille”.
It is not quiet during the day: trains pass, tractors pass, and it is a place where cars park for walking and cycling. People are constantly passing through.
03–04/09/2024. Small spot at the start of walking trails. Not suitable for large motorhomes. Next to a level crossing. Noisy when trains pass, but there are none during the night. Ideal for spending one night. Please respect the cleanliness and tranquillity of this place.
Decent place, but there is no shade; the trees have been cut down.
