  • Quiet and shaded site on the Doubs river five minutes from Chaussin
  • Canoe/kayak hire and lessons available
  • Garden, playground, table tennis and bar
You can, of course, canoe around here. Camping Le Canoë is by the Doubs river, for days of drifting by canoe or kayak along this watery length on the French-Swiss border: if you're new to the art or don't know where best to start, the site team can sort you out with lessons and vessel rentals from its sister site. You can fish from here too, or hire a bike to investigate the local countryside – armed with a packed lunch made for you by the Camping Le Canoë team on request. Elsewhere, it's a few minutes' drive to the town of Chaussin from your Jura department and Franche-Comté base, and about 50 minutes' drive to Dijon. Hiking's a popular pick around these parts too, along with horse riding, biking and wildlife watching in France's second biggest woodland: the Chaux forest, 40 minutes' drive away. For more watery times, the spa town of Salins-les-Bains is within 45 minutes. Camping Le Canoë is a green and spacious site, with a garden to laze around in after a session on the river. There's also a playground and table tennis to keep the kids occupied, while their keepers can sink a post-canoe drink at the on-site bar.

What customers say

This tranquil campground, nestled by the Doubs River, earns praise for its natural beauty and welcoming hosts. Guests rave about the roomy, shaded sites and delicious on-site pizza. While usually clean, some mention the basic restrooms could use updating, with occasional lighting and toilet paper shortages. Note: cash or check only for payment. Despite minor gripes, it's good value and many plan to return.

Liked Heerlijke, rustige camping. Met enorm ruime plekken, mooie begroeing eromheen zodat er veel schaduw en privacy is.
Vlakbij dr Doubs voor een verfrissende duik. Het was heet toen wij er waren (30-35 graden). Douches waren warm, toiletgebouw wel sober, maar schoon. En goedkoop!

Disliked Geen warm water bij het afwassen.

Lee C. 3 reviews

Powered grass campsite

Liked Very quiet, simple and clean camp site. Only stayed for one night. Showers looked in a new, good condition (2026). Local intermarche was handy with fuel.
Pitches were a decent size. Small park and grassed area for children.
YOU NEED AN ELECTRICAL CONVERTER (3 pin to 2 pin).
I’d stay again for an overnight.

Disliked Take you own toilet paper and no toilet seats (puts some off)

Local attractions

When you're (mostly) done with canoeing, horse riding, fishing and riverside hiking, make for town and village days around the region such as those in Dole, 30 minutes' drive away, or Burgundy capital Dijon (around 50 minutes). If you're still eager for active adventures, it's about 55 minutes from the site to Champagnole, a gateway town for treks and trips around the Jura lakes and mountains. More fishing and canoeing can be had at Jura's biggest natural lake Lac de Chalain, a short drive from Champagnole, or you can take the circular hike up to the Fontenu viewpoint for a look at the region's famed four lakes (see if you can see the remains of the 3,000-year-old stilt houses just below the lake's surface). Also have a look at Arbois (35 minutes), for the Château Pécauld and pretty views of the Cuisance river passing through town, and at Beaune (45 minutes), the famed commune in the middle of the Burgundy winemaking region.
