Riverside parking, flooding risk
D33, 01140, port de mûre
Been here?
Scenic spot on the banks of the Saône, with easy access along the towpath, picnic tables, rubbish bins, and a fishing pontoon. Swimming is possible, but there are no toilets. The area is generally calm, although mosquitoes, early fishermen, cyclists, boats, and occasional motorway noise can disturb the stay. It can flood seasonally and becomes muddy after rain.

Nice spot, but you must not be allergic to mosquitoes. Also, early in the morning the fishermen arrive, so no sleeping in. I will not even mention the cyclists who came to relieve themselves in front of my door. Some regulars at the site are not very pleasant.
Very beautiful, charming place! Perfect for one night, but unfortunately flooded at this time of year.
Great location, especially in sunshine. Depending on the wind, you can hear the motorway a little, and during the day and evening boats and ships travel along the river. Otherwise, very idyllic. We did not swim. Perfect for one night and a sunny morning. A few nice French people came here to fish in the morning.
Super nice! We were skeptical arriving in the dark but actually a perfect spot, we spent a beautiful morning sitting on the dock looking out over lilly pads. Lots of picnic tables, rubbish bin, along popular cycle way. Please don't make fires, especially where someone might need to park
Really nice spot. Very quiet. You can swim. Picnic tables available. Bin available.
Ideal for spending the night. No noise at all. We were alone and waking up beside the water was magnificent. A few tables and a bin, no toilets. A few people walking their dogs in the morning. A barge passed during the night, and a few small boats in the morning.
Nice and quiet. Lots of fishermen on Sundays. Be careful not to park on the slipway and obstruct launching the boats.
Superb, especially when cycling the Voie Bleue!!!! Please leave this area clean.
Very nice; we were even able to sit on the pontoon and eat, with a 180-degree view over the Saône. Very peaceful surroundings, with swans coming to visit us pleasantly. We live 15 minutes away, ideal for an evening outing.
Beautiful quiet place. Muddy and best avoided in the rain. Rather unsuitable for large vehicles. There are several picnic tables. Some puzzled but not unfriendly looks from the neighbors.
A real quagmire when it rains. We got our motorhome stuck. A nearby resident had to tow us out with his tractor. It cost us €20! On top of that, it is infested with mosquitoes, even during the day.
