  • Quiet site by the Aravis mountain range
  • 700 metres from Saint-Jean-de-Sixt and 30 minutes' drive from Annecy
  • Spectacular scenery, well-kept amenities and friendly vibe
Travelling in the Alps? Do yourself a favour and stop off at Camping du Crêt. This peaceful place is rightly lauded by its guests for its spectacular views, spotless amenities, friendly vibe and excellent setting – making it what one guest hails as a must-visit among the French Alps. If you're going to see for yourself (seriously, do yourself a favour), this smashing site is just outside the Haute-Savoie town of Saint-Jean-de-Sixt, in the Aravis range of the French Alps, between La Clusaz and Grand Bornand. The splendid lake of Annecy, the third biggest in France, is about half an hour's drive away for fishing, swimming, sailing, and basking on its sandy beach. Rock climbing, canyoning, via ferrata, paragliding, mountain biking, skiing, horse riding and golf are all easily accessible from here, along with another beach at Passy Lake, thermal spas at Thermes de Saint-Gervais, and guided tours around the foothills of mighty Mont Blanc. But you can bid a cheery au revoir to your wheels here if you wish: it's about 700 metres from Camping du Crêt to town, and walks and hikes into the mountains are all around the site. Dithering on what to do? Ask the friendly team at reception for info and tips. Camping du Crêt is run by a couple, Cynthia and Bastien, and has excellently-kept amenities, plenty of space and – see pics – spectacular scenery and colourful flowers all around. If you ask them, they can also provide laundry services. Ice creams, drinks and snacks like aperitif boards are available during the high season, subject to availability.

What customers say

This campsite offers stunning mountain views and a peaceful, natural setting, a short walk from a local village. Reviewers consistently praise the friendly and helpful hosts and the immaculate cleanliness of the facilities, particularly the showers and toilets, with some mentioning twice-daily cleaning. Pitches are described as spacious, shaded, and offering magnificent views. Some guests noted that the road near certain pitches could be a little noisy, and a few mentioned that toilet paper is not provided. There is also a mention of showers being small and a lack of hot water for washing up in May 2026. However, the overwhelming sentiment is positive, with many guests highly recommending the site and planning return visits.

Electric optional grass and gravel pitch

Liked Oh My God. This place is stunning. We wished we had spent longer days driving to have had more time here. Pitch was amazing. The views from the van were stunning. Weather was ferocious and fascinating. This is a gem of a location. Facilities were small, showers a little cramped, only two of the three worked. But no dramas.....

Love, Love, Love this location and site. Will definitely come back here to explore more.

Mont Blanc was spectacular and worth going up in the cable car to the Aiguille du Midi, locally you have La Clusaz which is amazing also, cable cars, toboggans, chair lifts, trekking.

Superb camp site for local adventuring.

Disliked Absolutely Nothing.

Electric optional grass and gravel pitch

Liked The pitches were relaxed and very close to a section of the river that was safe for both swimming and use of the sites kayaks and padel boards. The hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating. Even though it said ice pack freezing was not an amenity there was fridges and freezers on site.

Local attractions

Activities for all tastes are all around the site, ranging from walks and hikes in the immediate surroundings to sailing, skiing, climbing and paragliding within a short drive. The region has plenty of markets and local events too: ask the Camping du Crêt team what's on while you're here. Whatever activity you plump for, make time too for a trip to Lac d'Annecy, 30 minutes to the west and acclaimed as one of the cleanest lakes in Europe. As you might expect with such vast and clear waters, swimming and sailing are popular here; away from the water, potter around Annecy's towns and villages, or take one of the many trails skirting around the lake. One of the most famed Annecy villages is Talloires, flocked to for decades by arty and posh sorts, as well as active types to tackle the heaps of outdoor activities in its surroundings: the Tour de France has wound around here several times, and golf, horse riding, paragliding and canyoning are all popular picks from town.
