Been here?
This quiet picnic area beside the canal has four picnic tables and a peaceful setting suited to walking, cycling and dogs. Recent comments describe it as clean, with a well-maintained free water point and toilets, although the toilets were closed in winter. The nearby road has little traffic, but some vehicles pass from 6:30. The canal provides attractive views and a tranquil overnight stop.

Thanks to the municipality! Lovely, peaceful place. Ideal if you have a four-legged companion, for hiking and cycling!Translating

Very pleasant, bucolic and peaceful. This magnificent site should be preserved and respected. Thank you for making it available. So beautiful.Translating
We spent the night of 31 December here. Not a single car passed. Absolute peace and quiet. This morning, a magnificent sunrise over the canal, with coypu and the crowing of the rooster. The toilets are closed, probably for the winter. I had already come last summer for one night; the toilets were very clean. Thanks to the municipality for this place.Translating
Very pleasant little spot, with toilets, bins, a sink and tables available. Very quiet and secluded, close to the river with lovely horses. A little cat came to visit us!Translating
Great quiet place at the foot of the canal. Road alongside but very few cars. Immaculate and free toilet and water point. The only downside is lots of mosquitoes at night. Thanks to the municipality for this wonderful place.Translating
Back one year later. Still a great spot! The toilets, water point and bin are all maintained every day. Lovely view of the canal. The only small drawback is that the spot is on a bend in the small road, used by a few people going to work from 6:30 a.m.Translating
Quiet night on Saturday. Sunday at noon, it was summer: all the tables were occupied and some had been added, with seven picnics taking place at once! It was still peaceful. The water point is open. Sink for filling your bottle, lockable toilet, urinals; remember to bring your own toilet paper. Pleasant and shady.Translating
Another water point 600 m away toward the lock, along the towpath...Translating
Superb spot beside the canal. One paved space and several other possibilities on the grass for vans. Very quiet. Slightly overlooked. The cabin was closed at Easter 2022, but there are four picnic tables and a bin. No water point.Translating
