Forest car park with pretty trails to walk around. Only 2 other vans with us. Very quiet. No facilities but toilets and shops/pub a few mins drive or 15 min walk away in the village
Quiet and spacious car park. Very peaceful; in the morning, some hikers and dog owners pass by. Great spot. No toilets or anything similar. The village toilet was closed because of vandalism.Translating
Peaceful and fairly flat spot, but beware of midges!Translating
Very beautiful place, very quiet, good for overnight stays.Translating
We are traveling with a rooftop tent—it was a wonderfully quiet place to sleep. In the morning, many locals walk by with dogs, but this is not disturbing at all. The only thing missing is a toilet; there is a public toilet in the village.Translating
A camper longer than 2.3 meters cannot enter. Farther ahead of the turnoff to this parking area there is a place where overnight stays are allowed. There is a barely visible sign indicating that you must continue ahead to find it.Translating
Very quiet parking area where mountain trails begin; they are easy and very beautiful. We spent a peaceful night alone. Highly recommended for an overnight stop. Maximum height is 2.3 meters.Translating
02/08/22: attention, we could not access it because of the height restriction, so it is not suitable for motorhomes. There is a motorhome parking area farther along the main road, though it is not very flat and has few spaces.Translating
Free car park in the forest. Maximum height 2.10 meters. I stayed here alone overnight. Nevertheless, I felt very safe and had a quiet night.Translating
