43330, Saint-Ferréol-d'Auroure
Been here?
A quiet forest-edge parking spot with a pleasant view over the city, suitable for an overnight stay. The access road is narrow and somewhat rough, but a 7m vehicle has used it without difficulty. Around ten cars may pass during the night, while daytime brings more walkers and cyclists. There are no services, and a picnic area with a table and bin is 40 m farther on the right.

Not bad, but 40 meters farther on the right there is a picnic area with a table and rubbish bin.
Excellent location... we slept there for one night in a van. Very quiet at night; around ten cars passed. During the day, quite a few hikers and cyclists, but all very nice. Clean place, thank you for keeping it that way.
The access road is a little rough, but the view is pleasant. Very quiet place in the middle of nature, forest and fields. You can spend the night there; a little farther on, at the entrance to the forest, there is a larger place.
The access road is narrow, and in some sections only one vehicle can pass. Good for sleeping; there is not much space, but it is sufficient because there is little traffic. There is vehicle activity in the morning. There is a sign saying not to leave any kind of rubbish, and there must be a reason they put it there.
Very quiet and isolated, near the forest, with no mosquitoes at night. Between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., only a few cars. There are no bins, but there are some on the road descending to Firminy. The place was clean; please respect it. P.S.: A tissue is rubbish, so ladies, when you pee, put your tissue in a bin!
Spent a lovely peaceful night here. One or two passing cars but no other noise, just nature. Bit of a narrow road, with passing places, but we didn't have an issue and we are 7 metres. No services, but a beautiful view to be seen.
Really great place for one night—we heard nothing, it was very quiet, and we had a beautiful view of the mountains!
Parking beside a very quiet road. We spent the night while travelling, were alone and very peaceful, and the space lets you stay completely sheltered from strong winds. Highly recommended, fairly flat and with room for a maximum of 2 motorhomes.
