  • Family camping in the Parque Natural de Las Batuecas-Sierra de Francia
  • Sotoserrano five minutes’ drive and the Meandro del Melero 20 minutes
  • Beach on the Alagón River, a chiringuito bar and a small supermarket
Really, really want to escape the rat race? Then it’s time to get away to Camping Vega de Francia, where you can get thoroughly relaxed at 420 metres above sea level, on the outskirts of gorgeous, medieval Sotoserrano in the Parque Natural de Las Batuecas-Sierra de Francia. And good things just keep on coming at this campsite. It’s surrounded by a spectacular landscape of mountains, forested valleys and rivers – gateway to walking and cycling adventures, fishing and kayaking – and the long-distance Camino de La Vega hiking route runs right past the perimeter. Pitches are set under the sleepy shade of trees, and family facilities include showers, washing machines and a dryer (the latter for a small extra charge). Kids can occupy themselves happily in the games room with pool and table football (and a TV for lazy afternoons), out in the play area or splashing around on Playa de Sotoserrano river beach a short walk away. There’s a laidback chiringuito bar with an alfresco terrace overlooking the Alagón River, and a well-stocked supermarket selling local specialities (and wines for adults keen to get even more chilled).

What customers say

This tranquil, small campsite is situated in a beautiful, remote location by a river, ideal for relaxing and enjoying nature. Visitors praise the friendly and attentive staff, clean facilities, and comfortable, level pitches with ample shade. While some note the river is unsuitable for swimming and internet can be unreliable, the peaceful atmosphere and natural surroundings are consistently highlighted. The site is dog-friendly and offers good basic amenities, though the restaurant is not always open.

Electric optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Je vous recommande fortement ce camping !! L'accueil est chaleureux, les gérants connaissent les environs et peuvent vous renseigner et surtout c'est d'un calme ressourçant !
Un très bon rapport qualité/prix

Disliked Néanmoins, je me permets d'enlever une étoile si vous avez une tente, le sol est assez inconfortable même avec un tapis de sol...

Liked Que es muy acogedor, está limpio y las instalaciones son bastante nuevas. El trato genial la verdad.

Disliked No hay cobertura ninguna, y el wifi no llega a todo el camping, el río que da justito enfrente bonito pero a mí ver no apto para bañarse, muy turbio. Y la ubicación perdidos por el mundo.

Local attractions

First stop for active outdoorsy types will be the Parque Natural de Las Batuecas-Sierra de Francia (accessed directly from the site), where you can ramble through oak forests and go kayaking down deep canyons carved out by rivers. Be sure to have the camera ready at the Meandro del Melero (20 minutes’ drive), a famed and scenic bend on the Alagón River, and anyone with an interest in wildlife should keep hold of the binoculars for (rare) sightings of lynx, black storks and wild boar. For a journey back in time, head to historic Sotoserrano (five minutes) to explore its medieval streets lined with half-timbered buildings – particularly pretty when lit up at night – and have a stroll across the centuries-old Roman bridge crossing the Alagón. Other traditional and centuries-old villages to discover include Sequeros (half an hour) and La Alberca (20 minutes), both with café-lined piazzas ideal for an evening aperitivo or two.
