Been here?
A spacious, flat parking area beneath a viaduct beside a large lake, with bins and tables. It is suitable for a quiet overnight stop and offers walks around the lake and village, plus views of the viaduct. Recent comments mention ducks and a beautiful setting, but also that the lake is green and carries a cyanobacteria warning. Public toilets in the village are available.

Magnificent place, with rubbish bins. Great lake with ducks. So beautiful.
Beautiful view with a very pleasant short evening walk. The village beyond the viaduct is charming and has public toilets. It is a large, flat parking area without a view of the road. Unfortunately, it is busy, and despite the size of the parking lot, a van had to park right next to us.
Nice-looking spot that seems quiet, but the pond is completely green and dirty, and there is a risk of cyanobacteria! Our dog dipped her front paws in before we saw the warning. Luckily nothing serious happened, but we preferred not to stay.
A great spot that allowed us to split our journey between Brittany and southern France into two stages. Very clean place that should be preserved. Thanks to the municipality for maintaining it.
Great spot! And don't miss the Auberge du Viaduc restaurant, less than a 10-minute walk away: beautiful setting, wonderful welcome, and truly delicious food! A great discovery—we'll come back.
This spot is perfect. It is in a quiet, flat location. In addition, the view is a delight, with the viaduct right above. We were lulled by the birdsong and the sound of the water. We will return.
Excellent spot for picnicking, sleeping, or going for a walk. Under the bridge, it is quite unusual. Quiet place beside the pond, with rubbish bins.
Great spot. You can set up in two places: either to the right or left of the viaduct. Services: rubbish bins only.
Perfect stop for a very peaceful night. Tables are available.
Toilets closed. An amazing little spot! Please leave clean!
We spent one night here, and have nothing to complain about. Quiet and clean. Little traffic. We were alone and the view is nice.
Ideal spot for a peaceful night. Flat ground, magnificent view, birdsong, a walk on the viaduct... what more could you ask for? Hunters' and anglers' toilets on the other side of the lake were closed when we visited. No services apart from rubbish bins, and the mobile network reception is excellent.
A little peaceful corner for one or several nights, with a picnic table. I highly recommend it.
Parking beside a pond under the viaduct. Snow in the morning: two different landscapes.
