Camping Les Plages de l’Ain is beautifully situated in a wooded area, some 30 km from Lyon. The campsite lies on the banks of the river l’Ain, a location guaranteed to offer children hours of fun. The campsite is a good base for walking and cycling trips or excursions in the area, such as Lyon or the medieval town of Pérouges.

Shaded or sun-drenched

The campsite makes a well maintained impression with spacious, level camping pitches on a grass surface and neat sanitary facilities. Some pitches are demarcated with greenery. Numerous trees ensure shaded pitches, but for sun lovers there are also sunny sites. The sizes of the pitches are not all the same. The pitches for tents are slightly smaller. Scattered over the grounds are mobile homes. bungalow tents and cheerful Coco tents.

Building dams in the river

Children are sure to enjoy themselves on this friendly campsite. They can indulge themselves in the playground, swim in the two small swimming pools or build dams in the river l'Ain, which can be reached via a direct access from the campsite. Fishing is allowed in the river and in high season canoeing and kayaking trips are organised.

Morning exercises and outdoor laser game

The swimming pool is in a sunny location. In the summer months you can start the day with sporty morning exercises. There is an outdoor laser game for aficionados. In high season you can enjoy regional dishes in the restaurant (limited menu). The friendly owner regularly organises activities during the months of July and August, such as a concert or barbecue.

Liked - Friendly owner & staff- level spacious site with big pitches - the bar/restaurant is good & open from morning to evening every day - the private access to beach on the river is brilliant - the river water is clean & good for swimming - children love the ponies, goats, rabbits & chickens etc that are on one part of the site.
We can see that this is a great family site - our dog loved the big exercise field & swimming in the river.

Disliked - The drinking water taps around the site run a little slowly
