Camping le Paroy

Cross your hiking path along the Celtic Ways directly from the site to access a series of trails from four to 20 kilometres, or venture into the surrounding countryside along the Voie Vertes greenway paths for walking and cycling. If you'd like to swim, an outdoor pool is in Etang-sur-Arrous and a swimming pond in Thil-sur-Arroux, both 12 kilometres away. Camping le Paroy is in the Morvan Regional Natural Park, a vast nature reserve famed for its birdwatching and rare feathered species. Horse riding, canoeing, climbing and mountain biking are easy to access around the park too: ask the Camping le Paroy team for top tips. For a gentler option, take a day trip to the famed Burgundy vineyard region, the part of France with more AOC wines than anywhere else in the country. The Route des Grands Crus wine route passes through several swish parts of the vino area, between Dijon and Beaune on the way to Santenay; access it about an hour and 10 minutes away at Beaune. To the south of the Morvan Regional Natural Park, the Gallic fortified town of Bibracte (35 minutes' drive) is a top spot and study site for historical sorts geeky about Celtic civilisation. The museum has a permanent exhibition of archaeological items, an amphitheatre, and recreations of Celtic daily life.
