  • Family campsite with Massif des Vosges views in the Bas-Rhin region
  • Five minutes’ drive to medieval Villé and an hour from Strasbourg
  • Kids’ club and play area on site; skate park and municipal pool nearby
At the foot of the Vosges Massif and crossed by its namesake river, Camping Le Giessen is a smashing base near rural Bassemberg for families looking to explore France’s Bas-Rhin region, whether by car, on two legs, two wheels or on horseback. But there’s never a dull moment if you’d rather stay on site, as sporty activities and night-time entertainments are organised all summer long by a bunch of energetic camp leaders. Mini discos and treasure hunts at kids club keep younger children happy, along with climbing frames, bouncy castles and the Aquatoon splash fountain (high season only). Teens shouldn't have a chance to get bored or grumpy either, as there’s a skate park less than five minutes’ walk away. Site guests also get free access to Centre Nautique Aquavallées 100 metres from the site, where there is an indoor and outdoor pool, waterslide, spa and a lazy river. Families can take up sports like volleyball or pétanque, making new friends along the way, and evenings are covered with karaoke sessions and quizzes for all ages in the terrace restaurant, plus movie nights under the stars. You may be so busy that you never get to do any local exploring at all.

What customers say

Lovely spot in a valley, close to a river and pool. Spacious pitches, clean facilities, friendly staff. Some found access tricky, a few sanitary blocks needing attention, and pitches a bit small/damp. Water park busy, staff could be warmer, and pitches sometimes close.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked We really liked the swimming facilities next door which although included, are actually separate from the campsite.
We also liked the location.
The town nearby is lovely and we ate at a nice restaurant.

Disliked The campsite has a run-down feel about it generally, the toilet and shower facilities are dirty, our shower block was out of order due to building works, we didn’t actually see any building works, the situation is unacceptable during peak season.

We had to leave a deposit for our barrier key of €20, we had to leave at 8am, reception opens at 9am, we were not told this on arrival, we left the barrier key in the post box, we have not received our deposit back, the site staff have told us it is not possible to refund despite me providing them my bank details. This is unfair and basically theft of our €20.

Liked Sehr schöner Stellplatz mit reichlich Schatten durch große Bäume. Direkt am kleinen Bach. Gute Lage im Elsass für Ausflüge in die Region. Besonders toll ist die Möglichkeit das benachbarte Schwimmbad mitnutzen zu können.

Disliked Die Sanitäranlagen sind in einem schlechten Zustand. Sie sind zwar sauber, aber sanierungsbedürftig.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Le cadre, la tranquillité, être au bord de la rivière et la proximité avec les villes et villages touristiques

Disliked Manque de propreté dans les sanitaires.
Les animations pas assez vivantes et attractives.
Pour un emplacement avec caravane, un lampadaire en plein milieu, pas idéal pour manœuvrer.

Local attractions

If you do manage to tear yourself away from all the fun back at camp, most explorations of the hilly Alsace region start with a drive past vineyards to the lovely town of Colmar (40 minutes’ drive). Stop a while here to take a canal cruise on a flat-bottomed punt and follow cobbled lanes lined with half-timbered houses to the Musée d’Unterlinden, packed full of great European art. Strasbourg (an hour) is another local gem, with a mighty Gothic cathedral, ornate palaces and canal-side strolls. Stop off at Obernai for a tasting of slightly sparkly Alsace whites in wineries, while the hilltop Château du Haut-Kœnigsbour (both half an hour) is open for rampart tours and medieval armoury displays in its museums. Just not that into driving? Have a wander into Villé (20 minutes’ walk) for a meander around its historic city walls. You’re so close to the German border here it seems almost rude not to cross over the Rhine to spend a day hiking in the Black Forest (an hour’s drive).
