Quiet ponds, flooding risk
Les Plumes Gélines, 51300, Orconte
Been here?
A peaceful nature spot along communal ponds, accessible only by van and requiring a wedge. Recent visitors stayed two nights, while an older report noted that the access road can flood in rain. There are no services, but the setting is beautiful and exceptionally quiet, with walking and cycling possibilities. A hornet nest was previously reported beside the first pond.

We spent two nights around the municipal ponds. I recommend this spot: quiet nights, no noise, and very little traffic.Translating
Good location, very quiet. The long grass was cut this week, May 31. Peaceful overnight stay, with no mosquitoes or flies.Translating
Not accessible via Chemin des Plumes Gélines. We got stuck in the mud. The breakdown service refuses to enter the path with its truck. We are looking for a farmer with a tractor to get us out of here...Translating
