from 3 reviews Write review

Camping Du Lac is a small-scale campsite in the mountains above Argelès-Gazost, in the south of France. This well-kept campsite is located next to a large lake surrounded by mountains. The Pyrenees are the perfect location for hikes through the beautiful countryside. Nearby, cyclists can climb infamous cols from the Tour de France. The campsite is well cared for and very quiet.

View of the mountains

The first thing you see when you drive onto the property are the wooden chalets. These offer views of the surrounding mountains. The views from the touring pitches, a little further up the campsite, are also magnificent. You camp on an undulating campsite, which feels more like a park thanks to its uncluttered layout. The grounds are maintained very neatly. All the touring pitches are equally spacious and offer plenty of privacy.

Heated swimming pools

The campsite gets its name from the lake that lies across from the campsite. You only have to cross a main road to reach the water's edge. Here you can go for a nice walk. There is no swimming allowed in the lake, however. For this, you have to stick to the campsite itself, where there are two heated pools.

Shopping in Argelès-Gazost

Basic groceries can be purchased from the small shop in the reception building. You can also order bread, have a drink and eat breakfast there in high season. For more major shopping, Argelès is the best destination. There are some larger supermarkets there. You will also find several smaller shops and you can dine in the evening at one of the cozy terraces.

"Undulating, park-like campsite with large shaded or sunny pitches. Quietly situated in a village above Argelès-Gazost 2.5 km from a health resort and 10 km from Lourdes. Far from the big busy roads."

Travelling party: Couple

Heerlijke rustige camping gelegen op een mooi punt op een berghelling waarvandaan je verschillende dalen in kijkt. Leuk kleinschalig restaurant, waar de eigenaar en familie erg hun best doen het naar je zin te maken. Sanitair wordt de hele dag schoon gehouden en de (meeste) plaatsen zijn erg ruim. Super mooie omgeving voor wandelingen in de bergen en bezoek aan Lourdes.
Al met al een topcamping wat ons betreft
