River parking, steep narrow access
26 Rue de la Villette, 05330, Saint-Chaffrey
Been here?
Two spaces for fitted vans beside a river and opposite the washhouse, reached by a very steep and narrow road. The parking is flat and the area can be quiet at night, with nearby walks and respectful residents. The washhouse water is drinkable, but the tap has no thread and must be transferred using a container. Public toilets are available in the village centre, opposite the town hall, but are very dirty.

It is very steep and narrow going uphill. The water tap has no thread, so the water must be transferred using a container.
A completely safe little spot... the water is good, and the locals watch over us with curiosity and generosity :))) A peaceful night, and the short walks around are very easy.
Flat parking area, the washhouse is very nice, and the local residents are a little curious but respectful and have no problem with vans staying overnight. Quiet place with no passing cars. There are public toilets in the village center, opposite the town hall, but they are extremely dirty.
Parking among residential buildings. Quiet and set back, admittedly, but there is traffic in the parking area and a torrent nearby. Not very suitable for van life, but useful in a pinch.
Quiet place; we spent a very pleasant night. Near houses, so you need to remain discreet. Water point. No toilets.
