Camping L'Orée des Cévennes

You’ve figured out that there’s loads to do around here, oui? Get your planning chapeau on and start scheduling your itinerary, for you can be kept busy around these parts for months. Camping L'Orée des Cévennes is at the gateway to the Cévennes, at the crossroads of the Gard, Ardèche, Lozère and Camargue regions, all of which are stuffed with scenic landscapes, outdoor pursuits, medieval villages and Provençal-style village markets at the likes of Saint-Ambroix and La Grand Combe, 10 and 20 minutes’ drive away. Delve underground at caves including la Cocalière (15 minutes), Aven d'Orgnac and la Salamandre (both 35 minutes), or mosey around other ancient sites like the Pont du Gard (an hour) or the Maison Carrée Roman temple in Nîmes (55 minutes). Somewhat more modernly, castles to browse around are at Château de Montalet and Château d'Allègre, both 15 minutes away, and Château le Cheylard Aujac within 45. Anduze and Uzès are both within 45 minutes of the site (and both much recommended); for speedy sorts and petrolheads, the Pôle Mécanique Alès Cévennes motorsport race track is 20 minutes away.
