  • Friendly green site at the foot of the Pyrenees
  • Under 10 minutes' drive from Lourdes
  • Infrared sauna, restaurant and sports hall
A serene and short drive from world-famed Lourdes, in a green and scenic setting at the foot of the Pyrenees… peaceful times are yours for the picking at welcoming and friendly Camping d'Arrouach. The biggest draw in this Hautes-Pyrénées setting is of course the pilgrimage site of Lourdes a few kilometres away, a French tourist destination eclipsed only by Paris in the number of people who flock there each year (over six million, if you were pondering). But these mountainous surrounds have outdoor options and excursions for all tastes to get active at: leaf through the tourist information leaflets on site and the maps of walking and cycling trails, or ask the team to contact mountain guides to take you out on a trip, picking you up at the site. And after that? Camping d'Arrouach is well kitted out for less busy days too, whether you've tottered back somewhat knackered after a day hiking the mountains, or have joined the throng at Lourdes (for it really can get rather busy there). Start off at the infrared sauna to unknot sore muscles/de-stress from massive crowds, then wander along fully refreshed to the tapas bar for light bites and fine wine. There's also a meeting room and terrace with tables, for games and eats on less sunny days, and a communal barbecue area with picnic tables for dinner out of doors. The site reception sells practical bits and bobs such as camping gas, ice, drinks, ice cream, postcards, and bread and pastries in the morning.

Amaia L. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass site

Liked: There was a washing machine and a dryer(not very clean) and staff was generally friendly

Disliked: We got a pitch right next to the entrance to the campsite (nothing like was advertised with Mountain views etc) which had no privacy whatsoever and we found the campsite very crowded. Only three toilets for everyone staying there which we didn’t find enough as there was queues quite often. Overall we don’t recommend and wouldn’t stay there again.

Dee G. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass site

Liked: Absolutely fabulous! Staff so friendly and helpful. Site ideal for reaching Lourdes and other areas due to good local transport links so no need to drive everywhere. A great base for cycling/walking and sightseeing with added bonus of being eco/friendly. Great restaurant too!! Will definitely return but for longer next time!

Disliked: Only slight downside was lack of water pressure in showers- possibly part of the eco drive - still perfectly functional!

Ian W. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass site

Liked: Very clean and modern facilities, nice bistro on site.

Disliked: Mainly the flies, had to keep the van doors closed most of the time. Also the pitches are very tightly packed. The pool is really modern but small, no room to swim, more suited as a place for kids to splash in. There are views of the mountains but only if you are fortunate enough to get an edge pitch. Quite noisy in the evening beyond 11 to midnight.

Local attractions

Lourdes is the third most-visited Catholic pilgrimage destination in the world, after Rome and the Holy Land: the highlight is the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, set around the Lourdes grotto with the Béout, Petit Jeri and Grand Jer peaks rising up behind. If this isn't your bag, heaps of hiking and cycling can be had in the surrounding mountains, on trails of all lengths and for most levels. Around Lourdes, take the Les Gaves greenway cycle route from Lourdes to Pierrefitte; the local stretch of the Piémont Trail or GR 78, or the Henry IV trail, linking Lourdes to Pau. A must while you're here is the funicular railway trip to the summit of the famed Pic du Jer, 950 metres up with spectacular views of the countryside below (you'll see the peak from Lourdes after dark, as its big cross is lit up once night falls). Take the walking trail at the summit to the observatory for those splendid views, stretching out over Lourdes, Tarbes, Pau, the Argelès Gazost valley and the peaks of the Pyrenees.
