Camping Au Vallon Rouge ^★★★★

In low season, peace and quiet are the watchwords here! There are few activities on offer at the campsite, just relaxation. This is your chance to explore the region and its unspoilt countryside, to (re)discover the pleasures of board games as a family or simply to take some time out and devour a good novel or rediscover the great Pagnol classics!

From 06/07 to 31/08 (6 days/7 except Saturdays), the entertainment team is stepping up the pace with a rich and varied programme of activities for all the family.
Whether you're looking for something relaxing or dynamic, these activities, put on by a professional team full of energy, will set the pace for your stay!

In the morning, opt for the muscular awakening course. For the more sporty, take part in the step classes, Olympics and various sports tournaments that take place throughout the day!
There's no room for boredom here, between hard work and well-deserved breaks!

After a great day of discoveries or sports and activities, there's time for evening entertainment: concerts, entertainers' shows, cabaret shows by outside artists, magicians, dance evenings, etc.

Club P'tits Campeurs (ages 4 to 12): open during the summer holidays, Monday to Friday.
Every morning, your children will meet up with their activity leader to share recreational activities and meet up with their new holiday friends. On the programme: fun activities, sports and a meeting with the mascot Souricette!
