Riverside beach, low height
415 Route des Grottes, 73360, Saint-Christophe
Been here?
This flat, clean riverside spot has room for 2 or 3 vans, with a small beach where visitors can eat and swim in summer. The route is close by, but recent reports describe little or no traffic at night, although daytime road noise is possible. The access can have large puddles when wet, and the maximum height is 2 metres. The location is suitable for small vans rather than motorhomes.

Very pretty spot by the river, flat. Not far from the road, though. We only stopped for lunch, but it would probably be very good for the night.
A quiet place where you can eat on the beach by the water and swim in summer. Very clean. Space for a maximum of two or three vans, with a maximum height of 2 meters. The road is nearby but not disturbing at night because there is very little or no traffic.
Do not use Google Maps for access; use the Park4Night map! Large puddles on the access road when wet. Very close to the main road.
Magnificent little spot by the river. The only drawback is that the road a few dozen meters away creates some noise.
Small spot directly on a beautiful river. With our 6-meter Sprinter, we could have driven farther into the forest, so we would not have been right next to the road. Really fine for one night.
For small vans only if you want to drive under the trees, but it is lovely. The small beach is very pretty and quiet. The road can be heard during the day, but it was bearable, so I think staying overnight is possible. Attention: the coordinates indicate the wrong riverbank! You must cross the bridge and then take the path by the campsite sign.
Super nice spot; the river is really great and the water is crystal clear! We spent the late afternoon and night there. Some traffic on the nearby road in the afternoon and morning, but nothing at night. I highly recommend this truly magnificent spot.
A very simple but beautiful place for a longer break. We spent the night there, but it was far too noisy for us because of the road immediately nearby. If you have a smaller motorhome and it is dry, you can park farther into the forest. Then you hear the traffic much less, but with our 7-meter motorhome we had to park directly on the gravel track.
Isolated place by the water; the nearby road is not very disturbing, with little or no traffic at night. Remember to close the windows at night because it is quite cool in the morning due to the nearby river. I highly recommend this place for a quiet short break. P.S. There is little direct sunlight for solar panels because you are parked under the trees.
