- Less than a kilometre from the velorail of the Ardèche Verte
- Fishing, snack bar and play area
A spectacular journey is a mere stroll away with a stay at Camping De La Vallee Du Doux in the Doux Valley: it's 800 metres from the Ardèche Verte velorail, running for 12 highly scenic kilometres among the mountain scenery.
Starting from Boucieu le Roi, the velorail has a pick of two routes, one of two hours and one of two and a half: splendid views are guaranteed on both, so have your camera at the ready… You might additionally want to snap pics of the local village of Boucieu-le-Roi, also 800 metres away, and of the topping scenery all around this area of clear, clean air and paths galore for walking and cycling.
Back – easily – at base, De La Vallee Du Doux is a small and family-friendly riverside site, with plenty of room among its green scenery and with river fishing straight from the grounds. If you're not an angler, you can tackle pétanque or table tennis while the kids tackle the play area, or just find a shady spot to dreamily sit: you'll need to conserve some energy for pedalling the velorail…

Local attractions
Two top spots are under a kilometre from Camping De La Vallee Du Doux, the Ardèche Verte velorail, running along the historic line of the Chemin de Fer du Vivarais on two 12-kilometre routes inaccessible by car, and the village of Boucieu-le-Roi, one of the region's designated 'villages of character': both excellent options for days out.
If you don't want to take the velorail, the famed Ardèche train or Chemin de fer du Vivarais (CFV) also reaches parts of the Doux valley that can't be accessed by car – this time by steam railway. The line runs for 33 kilometres between Tournon in the Rhône Valley and Lamastre in the Doux, passing Boucieu-le-Roi a short stroll from your green and peaceful base.
Outdoor options are all around the Doux valley, running from the Ardèche plateau to the Rhône valley through spectacular lanbscapes of forest, gorge, mountains, river and orchards; around the Ardèche, there are hundreds of kilometres of marked hiking and cycling trails including the Lamastre-Retourtour-Désaignes, the Monteil loop and the Retourtour - Tour de Monteil.
