Forest edge parking, daytime traffic
D85, 95270, Saint-Martin-du-Tertre
Been here?
A large grassy parking area at the edge of the forest, with several flat places and hiking routes starting nearby. It has no services or bins, and the road brings considerable daytime traffic but little noise at night. Cars, walkers, cyclists and occasional aircraft may be heard, although the aircraft noise was not disturbing.

In the evening we could hear cars on the road. Two stopped at the parking, one in front of us, one behind. Two people got out of one car & went into the dark forest for 5 minutes, returned and left. The other car left shortly after we went outside to check the situation. Other than that we encountered runners and dog walkers, all friendly. Nice meadow with picnic tables surrounded by trees.
Very large parking area by the forest. Starting point for hiking, cycling, and running. In the flight path of Roissy CDG, but it did not bother us. The road is nearby, with lots of traffic during the day but little at night. No rubbish bin. Perfect for one night before departing for the airport the next day. It is a 30-minute drive to CDG.
Spacious and very quiet spot. No noise at night. During the day there is traffic on the road. You can even hear birds. Very good location. We stayed for one night.
Great for one night, no lights, just some cars passing by and some dog walkers, hikers and cyclists in the morning.
It is what you expect from a wild camping area with no services. It is flat ground and is a quiet spot for the night. Lots of nice walks from this point through the forest. Good place to park up for the night. No height or length limit.
We chose this spot because of the many good reviews. However, around 11 p.m. a first van arrived, followed shortly afterward by a second, and shouting began. We quickly left because the two men seemed dangerous. Maybe we were just unlucky that day.
