  • 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

Great riverside spot, praised for peace and friendly staff. Spacious pitches, clean facilities (though a bit dated). River swimming a plus for some; others found ground tough and insects a bother. Wi-Fi can be spotty.

Power optional grass and earth campervan campsite

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.

Power optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Brilliant camp site off the beaten track and very animal friendly. I pass through here often on my way from France to Portugal and love the place. Just in front of the front gate there is a lovely river with a beach and there are nice wals around the site and a lovely old style village nearby with bars, butcher, restaurant etc.

Power optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Fantastic camping site in the mountains on the banks ofa lovely river with beach. Dog friendly, inmmaculate toilets / showers and a very friedndly couple running it. It is of the beaten track but well worth the diversion, it is close to some very lovely villages with ancient architecture, bars and supermarkets.

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.
