Roadside overnight stop, traffic noise
Route du Grand-Saint-Bernard, 1932, Bovernier
Been here?
Roadside spot with picnic table along a busy Swiss road near a river, suitable for one night. Traffic noise is constant and loud, though parking closer to the river can reduce it. No toilets. Some shaded spots, and the site is described as clean. Best treated as a one-night stopover rather than a place to linger.

Good spot. Accessible in the uphill direction; otherwise go to the next roundabout. Very noisy because of road traffic.
We ended up at this parking area out of necessity. It is not for people sensitive to noise. It is clean. No toilet. There are shaded areas. It is fine for one night.
The sound of the river is delightful. We spent the night in this parking area; the road is close, but parking along the river makes the noise minimal.
Along one of Switzerland’s busiest roads, practically right next to it. Even eating here is unappealing because of the constant noise from cars and trucks. Sleeping here would not even occur to me.
