Camping de Lyon

If you want to combine a camping holiday in the fresh air with a sightseeing tour of Lyon, then Camping de Lyon is the place for you. The nature campsite near the motorway is the perfect retreat after an eventful day in the UNESCO World Heritage Site and is also an excellent stopover on a trip to France if you are just passing through. The beautiful pool, good catering options and the large playground for children are just some of the reasons why guests like to return here time and time again.

Nature campsite close to the city with a swimming pool

Surrounded by greenery and yet conveniently located with direct motorway access, Camping de Lyon welcomes its guests approx. 12 km north of the centre of the French city of Lyon. Noise pollution is not a problem on the campsite, however: the noise barrier to the passing motorway softens the background noise on the 6-hectare meadow site and allows visitors to Lyon to enjoy a real nature holiday close to the city.

The partly slightly sloping grassy ground of the pretty park offers space for 185 pitches in the shade of old trees. The pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes each have an electricity connection, for which a small surcharge is payable. For guests with motorhomes, there is also a motorhome pitch with a waste disposal station. Campers without motorhomes will find their new home in the cosy mobile homes and holiday accommodation. You can choose from originally designed shingle caravans with their own kitchenette, modern wooden chalets with a bathroom and toilet as well as spacious mobile homes with a direct view of the countryside.

After a sightseeing tour of the World Heritage Site of Lyon or an excursion to the surrounding vineyards, city visitors and other holidaymakers can meet up by the pool with sun loungers and parasols to cool off and relax together. The campsite also has a paddling pool for the youngest guests. There is also a playground where they can let off steam. Other leisure activities on site include volleyball, table tennis and boules.

Guests can buy breakfast ingredients such as baguettes, croissants and other groceries in the small shop selling bread. Homemade pizza, grilled dishes and other delicacies are available at Café Resto. There is also a supermarket just 500 metres from the campsite. You can also hire a barbecue from reception and prepare your own dinner in the barbecue area. WLAN is available free of charge in the communal area of the campsite. There is also a TV room here if you don't fancy a long day of sightseeing or other family activities.

Excursions to the world heritage site of Lyon and the surrounding area

The competent and friendly staff at the campsite reception can provide information about excursions in the region. A must for culture lovers on a city break in France is of course a trip to the centre of Lyon, just 12 km from the campsite. One of the many architectural highlights in the medieval centre of the old town is Saint-Jean Cathedral. The famous Beaujolais wine-growing region to the north of the city is also well worth a visit. A wonderful landscape where those seeking peace and quiet and nature lovers will find their own personal paradise. Families can spend carefree hours at the "Mini World Lyon" amusement park: In addition to famous buildings in miniature format, characters from well-known films such as Alice in Wonderland can be seen here.
