Route des Aisses, 45240, La Ferté-Saint-Aubin
Been here?
Peaceful wild spot by a lake with shaded parking accessible for vans. Flat ground, water point, and public toilets (though closed in winter). Scenic morning views and ideal for families and dogs. Some highway noise from a nearby road, and 4G signal is poor. Castle town of La Ferté-Saint-Aubin is nearby for visits and cycling.

Spot easily accessible by van, pleasant and quiet. Ideal for an evening break. Note: there is a small water point.Translating
Incredible stop for lunch, with lots of shade, ideal for these very hot days. Those of us traveling with dogs have to look for places where we can walk them and let them enjoy the route too; this is ideal. During the day there is activity from people from nearby villages, all very friendly. The toilets were closed for repairs.Translating
Very beautiful spot by the water and super easy to reach. It is beside a motorway, though, so you can hear the traffic, and it is terribly unfortunate that the toilets were closed. Otherwise really great if you want to relax peacefully without others around!Translating
Very pleasant, with a beautiful lake. The dogs loved it, and there is also water available.Translating
A beautiful place for nature lovers. I spent a pleasant afternoon in the shade during hot weather and had a quiet night.Translating
Everything needed for a good night's sleep. Clean toilets, a water point, and a location beside a pond. I took a small detour to get there and do not regret it. You can indeed hear the road a little, even though it is some distance away, but it is not very bothersome.Translating
Very pleasant for one night.Translating
Our first spot for our first night in a van with two children and a dog—it was perfect! Somewhere between a wild spot and an equipped parking area, with a very large flat space where the children could play ball. It takes 20 minutes to walk around the lake, and the misty morning landscape is magnificent. There are Turkish-style toilets and a tap. A small group of young people gathered in the evening, but there was no problem.Translating

Very nice area. Toilets closed in winter, poor 4g
Very quiet and pleasant place near a lake. Toilets open permanently. Stabilized ground. We are in a converted van with two dogs. We had dinner there and spent the night. Fishermen arrived around 5 a.m., but they were discreet. We left the next morning after a short walk around the lake and breakfast.Translating
Quiet spot beside a pond. You can hear the nearby road a little, but nothing disturbing. Toilets available and clean. However, there is quite a lot of rubbish in the parking area.Translating
Clean, flat, quiet, and surrounded by greenery. Rustic but clean toilets open 24/7. Pleasant walk around the pond. You can hear the nearby main road a little.Translating
We stopped for one night. The place is fairly quiet and pleasant, and the walk beside the pond is very nice.Translating
Quiet parking area near a pond, in the shade under the trees, with toilets and a playground.Translating
Impeccably clean, with toilets available beside a magnificent lake. Fishermen come around five o'clock in the morning.Translating
Stayed here for a night, very peaceful, with only one other camper.Translating
Very beautiful, quiet place. Toilets available, unfortunately somewhat dirty.Translating
Small lunchtime stop, very quiet, beside a pond with fishermen. Toilets and drinking water also available.Translating
We spent the night there. Perfect!Translating
I stopped for one night in June 2025. The road and parking area are not lit, so it is best to bring a headlamp to find your way when arriving. The parking area is flat and shaded. The pond gives the place its charm, and it is very pleasant to relax there; there are benches and you can walk along the pond. The toilets were clean, but there was no paper.
Great spot amongst the wildlife around the lake. Tap water available and 3 French toilets. I would not venture unless you're blind and lost your sense of smell. Lovely walk around the lake. Back to nature. Nice. I'd have given 5 star bar the state if the WCs!
Nice, peaceful place (you hear very little traffic at night). You wake up to birdsong, and the walk around the pond is pleasant. The toilets and water point are a very welcome bonus.
Very good, as described: Turkish-style toilets, bins, and a push-button tap. That is sufficient for me. Peaceful place, with lovely walks to enjoy.
Parking beside a very pretty lake, fairly quiet despite being near a busy road. A few cars turn around during the night, but nothing too serious. I recommend it; however, if you are looking for absolute peace and quiet, this spot is not for you.
An excellent place to park up for a night, friendly for all sized vans. There's a children's playground just a short walk along the lane, near enough for families but far enough away not to be heard
Very quiet and soothing place. We spent a great night. Water and toilets available.
A very beautiful place beside a lake. Toilets, a water point, and bins are available. I am removing one star because of the road nearby, but it remains perfectly reasonable and did not bother us that night.
Pleasant, clean place. Minus one star because it is close to the road and there is a lot of traffic, so it is a little noisy at night. Toilet and water point available. Ideal for one night or even longer.
