  • Friendly and relaxed site on the banks of the Saône river
  • A 14-kilometre towpath along the river right outside the site
  • Fishing equipment to hire on site
Fishing or bike rides? Both are on the menu at Camping Kanôpée Village, a peaceful, well-appointed park in Trévoux, on the banks of the Saône river in the scenic Ain department. The site is set in a peaceful area on the edge of a river, surrounded by dense, green vegetation. Spacious, shaded and well-maintained, the pitches are all grassy. There's plenty of space to relax and take in the scenery at this park – and plenty to keep the kids busy while the grownups chill out, as in high season the park’s lively entertainment team runs daily activities for junior guests such as arts and crafts, treasure hunts and sports tournaments. Adults, meanwhile, will find a pétanque court. For bicycle rides, head to the edge of the river or the towpath in front of the site. If you'd rather swim, there is a water park in Trévoux, a few kilometres from the site. The Saône is a popular fishing spot (purchase a licence and rent basic equipment at reception). For golfers, there is an 18-hole course 10 minutes' drive away from the site. Colombier Lake, a splendid green setting for a swim, is five minutes' drive away too. The campsite has three well-maintained toilet blocks, as well as wifi.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Beautiful location. We had a river side pitch and could see the boats and river from our front window. Good clean facilities, very clean site. The local town is very pretty with lots of little restaurants tucked away within 5 minutes walk.

Disliked Just remember to take a French plug to 240V blue plug adapter for hookup. We purchased one in country instead of using our uk mains plug adapter with a plug adapter. Ran everything at 10A without issue.

Electric grass pitch

Liked We returned to this site as it is very beautiful and scenic, local supermarket was excellent for supplies. Very relaxed here. All amenities clean and tidy. Can be a little noisy from time to time they have a music festival advent just outside the campsite which is very nice to attend if you like that kind of entertainment. We will return again, there is a river running through where glass boats sail through and lights on the bridge look stunning at night.

Disliked Nothing

Electric grass pitch

Liked Nice location with easy walk to local village and nice cycle path alongside river. Check in was allowed early due to extreme heat which was a huge help. Good sized shady pitches.

Disliked One block of facilities closed which was not ideal due to amount of guests. Unfortunately site seemed to allow large groups which played music very loud very late. We would recommend speed enforcement around the site and vehicles were driving very fast.

Liked The river

Disliked I said to my wife it did not feel safe, then some kids threw things over the shower doors onto people showering. No security at all the gate to the public river which is a hang out for some sketchy looking young hoodies.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about the issue in the showers and your feeling regarding safety.

This behavior is unacceptable, and we are going to look into this to reinforce security around the campsite and near the river access.

We hope to provide you with a much better experience next time.

Have a nice day

Local attractions

Pedally peeps will be pleased to learn that a 14-kilometre towpath lies right in front of the site; alternatively, if you’re more into your jumps and dirt trails, head to the Dombes plateau, 23 kilometres from base, to traverse its 16 mountain bike circuits. Two hiking trails are marked out here too if you’d rather take a slower approach. For a city-based jaunt, UNESCO-listed Lyon is around 40 minutes’ drive away, or about an hour and a half on a bike alongside the Saône if you’re feeling particularly energetic. Stick around to sample the city’s famed gastronomy in between exploring sights such as the museum of fine arts, the spectacular hilltop church and museum of Fourvière, and the 14th-century cathedral.
