Camping Les Sources Du Lac

Lac de Der covers over 5000 hectares and its shoreline stretches over 70 kilometres, so you'll find lots of opps for shoreside hiking, mountain biking and cycling, along with two marinas, nautical centres and six – oui, six – supervised beaches for sunbathing, sailing, windsurfing and fishing. The area is also well famed for birdwatching with over 270 species including ducks, cranes and birds of prey calling it home. But of course you're in the Champagne province. And might be feeling bubbly. Delve into the local cellars to sample the local wet wares, not forgetting to check out the regional charcuterie and the many creamy Haute-Marne cheeses… The team also recommends a cycle around the route of the Der region's churches, noted for their wooden sides, and the 45-minute trip to pretty popular Nigloland, the theme park with 40 attractions for all ages. Paragliding courses and sessions are also available nearby.
