Quiet at night and noisy again from 7 a.m. on weekdays. We were alone, with no facilities but picnic tables. It was nevertheless very pleasant to be in the forest, and with a clear sky there was a magnificent starry night.
The place is pleasant, although somewhat noisy because the two roads are very close and busy during the day. There are better places for forest walks.
Unfortunately, because of roadworks, we could not find the access. We then spent a very quiet and relaxed night nearby in a residential area.
Large parking area in the heart of the forest, very clean and suitable for vehicles of all sizes. Very quiet night, but many hikers arrive from the morning onward. Very good stopover location for one night.
Perfect for the night, very level, plenty of space, and picnic tables. No noise.
Very good spot for spending a night. We were alone. Flat, gravelled site, road nearby but very little traffic. No signal at all, perfect if you want to disconnect from the world!
Picnic tables. Be careful, do not take the Google Maps route. Arrive via the roundabout.
Excellent gravelled, flat spot set back from the road, which cannot be seen and can barely be heard. 4G is fine.
