Which mountain campsite should I choose in the Alps?
Go on a family camping trip in the French mountains
In both summer and winter, the Alps will take your breath away with their many national and regional parks.

From high-altitude lakes to alpine meadows and iconic peaks, enjoy a majestic setting for an unforgettable vacation.
Whatever your vacation preferences, rent a high-end mobile home, a luxury chalet, or an apartment with a mountain view in the heart of a campground in the Alps.

What sports activities are available around Lake Serre-Ponçon?
Want to have some fun from your campsite at Lake Serre-Ponçon? Between dips in the turquoise water, hop on a stand-up paddleboard, kayak, or sailboat to explore the lake’s wild nooks and crannies. For fishing enthusiasts, arm yourself with patience to catch a pike or a trout.
For those who love a bit of a thrill, take to the skies for a paragliding flight over the lake. Down below, the alpine trails are perfect for mountain biking through the pine forests.

Mountain Camping in the Vosges: Nature and Tranquillity at Altitude
What type of accommodation should I choose in the Vosges?
From the moment you arrive at your campsite in the Vosges Mountains, you'll feel that little something that makes you want to slow down and disconnect. An ideal destination for a mountain holiday with family, as a couple, or with friends, the mountain range flourishes around lakes, rivers, forests, and ridges.
Book a true haven in a privileged setting surrounded by greenery and birdsong. Whether you choose a luxury chalet for 2 to 6 people with a private pool or jacuzzi, a unique accommodation, or a high-end mobile home, the motto remains the same: relaxation. After a day exploring, treat yourself to a moment of tranquility in the spa with its Finnish sauna.
What activities can I do as a family in the Vosges?
Looking for a campsite ideal for hiking? The Ballons des Vosges Regional Natural Park boasts over 7,000 km of marked hiking trails. The routes along the Route des Crêtes (Crest Road), for example, offer breathtaking panoramas, particularly on sections of the GR5 long-distance hiking trail. Want to gain some altitude? Climb to the summit of the Hohneck to take in the Alsace plain and, on a clear day, catch a glimpse of the Alps.
For those who prefer a little more intensity, mountain biking on the greenway of the High Vosges, trail running or even summer tobogganing provide a touch of thrill.
High altitude means lakes too! Lake Longemer, like Lake Bouzey near your mountain campsite, is perfect for swimming and water sports. Explore the wilder spots by sailboat, paddleboard, or pedal boat at sunset. You can also book a campsite near Lake Gérardmer to easily explore its shores or visit Lake Corbeaux with its more rugged beauty.
When winter arrives, the Famille Plus labelled slopes of the Gérardmer and La Bresse-Hohneck resorts take over to extend the pleasure of the mountains.
Why choose the Pyrenees for a mountain camping holiday?
Find your campsite in the Pyrenees mountains
The Pyrenees are an exceptional destination for your mountain camping holiday. From verdant valleys to steep peaks, from high-altitude forests to crystal-clear streams, the mountain range immerses you in wild and unspoiled nature.
In this magnificent setting, book unique riverside accommodation at a campsite in the Pyrenees. Glamping offers you the proximity to your surroundings and the comfort of a mobile home. You can also embrace the Spanish pace of life in upscale rentals with hotel-style amenities, such as beds made upon arrival.
What are the must-do outdoor activities in the Pyrenees?
The French side of the Pyrenees is home to iconic sites such as the Cirque de Gavarnie, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Pic du Midi, accessible by cable car. For adrenaline junkies, canyoning, rafting, and caving will keep you on the edge of your seat.
On the Spanish side, staying at a campsite in Aragon, in the heart of the Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park, reveals a wilder, more rugged landscape. This lesser-known side is well worth the detour, with its deep gorges like the Añisclo Canyon, its natural pools, such as the Gorga de Boltaña, and its vertiginous cliffs.
You can also go rafting in the province of Huesca, cycle on the mountain bike trails in Aínsa from our bike campsite, or go horseback riding through the forests.
In winter, between snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and dog sledding, the Pyrenees offer a complete mountain camping experience. And to recharge your batteries, nothing beats a stop at a thermal spa in Bagnères-de-Bigorre or Panticosa.
