Camping River ***

General information

from 7 reviews Write review

Camping River is located on the River Magra, close to the Ligurian coast and the Mediterranean Sea. With its large swimming pool and quite spacious touring pitches, overlooking the hills, it is a good place to stay. Bear in mind that the facilities on the campsite are rather basic. Camping River is a good base for trips to Cinque Terre, Lucca and Pisa.

Camping between river and sea

The land between river and sea consists for a large part of green hills. This terrain accommodates almost two hundred flat pitches, which are certainly quite spacious by Italian standards. The delimitated pitches are tidy and get enough shade. The hills in the background only lose their height when they reach the Mediterranean Sea. The steep rocks with afforestation make a pretty picture. Especially when you sail along the coast with a boat.

Large swimming pools

On the edge of the campsite, near the river, there are two large swimming pools. For swimming laps there is a separate competition pool, while the other pool is mainly for fun and games in the water. A separate paddling pool ensures that even the youngest water enthusiasts have fun.

Basic facilities

The facilities on the campsite are quite simple. There are sufficient , well cleaned sanitary facilities, but very old-fashioned. The assortment in the small shop is very small. Luckily you only have to drive five minutes for more extensive groceries. If you want to take it easy, get a takeaway meal from the campsite restaurant.

Super Platz,nettes Personal ,leider haben wir das Restsurant nicht probiert,aber zu Ostern gab es Menue und all you can eat und die Teller sahen lecker aus. Fussballplatz,Spielplatz und HUNDEAUSLAUFPLATZ.Alles sauber und sehr große Parzellen,dies ist eher selten anzutreffen. An Wochenenden und Feiertagen sehr voll von den Städtern im Umkreis,aber alles nette Leute.Jederzeit wieder.

Un campeggio che offre molte possibilità. Ci sono piazzole per tende, per camper, per caravan grandi e chi non ha veicoli ricreazionali può scegliere tra molte soluzioni di bungalow. Il campeggio è grande ma non ce ne si rende conto. E poi il fiume con la banchina per le barche. Tutto positivo. Le uniche note negative sono i servizi igienici un po’ datati, la strada per raggiungere il campeggio stretta e dissestata, la zona piazzole caravan grandi poco ombreggiata.

Wir kamen Anfang September spät abends nach Rezeptionsschluss an, wurden trotzdem noch sehr freundlich empfangen. Sanitäranlagen veraltet, aber regelmäßig gereinigt, Restaurant okay, Helicopterflüge sind störend, Schwimmbad super gepflegt, günstig gelegen um nach Lerici und zum Cinqueterre zu gelangen. CCA - Acsipreis okay.

Siamo un nucleo familiare di due persone e del nostro amico peloso. Abbiamo soggiornato col camper il mese di agosto 2020. La strada per arrivare un po problematica. Bello il campeggio, peccato poca ombra. Bella anche la zona sgambatoio per il nostro amico a 4 zampe, peccato che è tutta al sole. Servizi igienici puliti, scarico wc chimico un po particolare ma comodo. Per poter visitare i dintorni, bisogna spostarsi col camper o essere motorizzati. Non possiamo dare altri giudizi perché abbiamo soggiornato solo 2 giorni.

Tweede zwembad 14 september al dicht ( eerste al eerder). Sanitair gedateerd en matig schoongemaakt. Helikopterbasis nabij met dus regelmatig overvliegende helicopters tot gevolg. Wél ruime plaatsen.

Travelling party: Seniors

Een verblijf op deze camping is ten zeerste af te raden daar de sanitaire voorzieningen niet aan de standaarden van deze tijd voldoen oud smerig en veel santair kapot en/of buiten werking. Snap daarom ook niet dat deze camping in acsigids is opgenomen.
