Looking for some things to do while not siding around the water park on your next French camping holiday? Here’s some tips and inspiration for you!
Pack your panniers and set off with the whole family on one of several dedicated French cycle routes close to your campsite. Enjoy miles upon miles of traffic-free cycle paths, such as the Vélodyssée or the La Loire à Vélo, which will invigorate you and your family. Make sure you’ve filled up your water bottles as it can get very hot in the summer.
When staying at a French campsite with a water park, you’re never too far away from some awesome architecture. France showcases some of the finest medieval castles in Europe, which are sure to take everyone’s breath away. With Château de Chambord near Blois and Château de Vaux le Vicomte in Maincy, to name just two examples, it will be easy to make your family feel like royalty on their holiday.
An activity that all the family can enjoy together, kayaking will provide you with a great bonding experience. With many lakes and streams situated near to campsites in France, such as Courant de Soustons, you can enjoy a safe day of water sports that will leave the whole family wanting more. Perfect for all levels of swimmer, your family can paddle to their hearts’ content.
Whether it’s a rainy-day activity or a main part of your itinerary, France has numerous art galleries in local towns just a short distance from many campsites. Galleries like Musée Toulouse-Lautrec in Albi or Carrières de Lumières near Avignon provide a great day out for all ages with the chance to relax and soak up some world-famous paintings.
France is covered with beautiful, lush green areas such as Landes Forest and the Livradois-Forez Regional Natural Park, which are only ever a stone’s throw away from a campsite with a water park. Take your children out for the day to explore the vast beauty of Mother Nature and breathe in the fresh air given off by the trees. Be wowed by the wildlife, soak up the peace and quiet, and enjoy precious moments with your family. Remember your walking shoes so your feet will thank you at the end of the day.
Close to most campsites in France you’ll find a town, such as Tours or Arles, which hosts a weekly farmers’ market or fleamarket. A common occurrence which is steeped in tradition, you can expect to find freshly baked bread, local cheeses and lots of antique goods, which are perfect gifts for friends back home. Try Camembert or Roquefort, two of the most popular French cheeses, to really feel like a local.
Not only can you swim in campsites with water parks and at the ocean, but you and your loved ones can also visit a lake or a river to wild swim. Visit Chenonceaux, near Tours, to enjoy a picnic and a dip in the River Cher before returning to your tent for a well-earned rest. Bring some waterproof sandals for the kids to protect their feet from any pebbles or stones in the water.
France is full of World Heritage Sites, many of which are located close to campsites with water parks. From Mont-Saint-Michel in Normandy to the walled city of Carcassonne in the south, your family will love having these inspiring heritage sites included as part of their holiday itinerary. Make sure to bring your camera, as these sites provide the perfect opportunity for a family picture.
Apart from the sheer awesomeness of water slides themselves, there are many additional benefits to a waterpark camping holiday whether you’re a camping beginner or a seasoned veteran of the French camping scene, they include:
With life often going a mile a minute, we sometimes forget what is most important to us. It’s not anyone’s fault, it just happens. Campsites in France with water parks offer families of all sizes the perfect time to relax, reconnect and remember what really matters to them.
Many campsites in France are open all year, so they offer the perfect chance to enjoy a safe getaway. With staff at the children’s clubs there to look after your children, plus traffic-free cycle routes and water parks with lifeguards, you can relax on your holiday knowing your family is in the safest hands possible.
Clean air, fresh mornings and some peace and quiet can be just what you and your loved ones need to re-energise after a busy year. Not only great for your physical health, camping and the sports associated with it are great for your mental well-being too.
You’ll find a great array of organised activities to suit everyone on your family holiday such as animations, cycling, orienteering and hiking when staying at your campsite in France. With activities for adults, children and families, campsites with a water park ensure that you and your family have a holiday you won’t forget.
