Camping Les Genêts

Camping Les Genêts is located between the large Pareloup reservoir and the impressive Aveyron plateau. It is a perfect holiday destination for water sports enthusiasts and families.

Child-friendly campsite by the lake with pool

If you love the wet element, the large pitches at Camping Les Genêts are just right for you. The shore of the Pareloup reservoir borders directly on the campsite. Every guest will find the perfect accommodation on the spacious site. There are sunny, semi-shaded and shaded pitches, most of which are separated by hedges. Mobile homes and chalets are also available at Camping Les Genêts. Some of these are located very close to the beach. Children can play freely on the sandy beach. However, there are also wooden walkways for direct access to the water. An inflatable water park provides hours of fun. Pedal boats can also be hired directly at the campsite. The pool area offers an alternative to the natural waters. Pool parties and aqua aerobics are regularly organised at the heated pool. There is also a paddling pool for the little ones. Right next to the pool is the restaurant with a terrace. Theme evenings are organised regularly. There is also a grocery shop on the campsite with a wide range of products. The children's club offers fun and games during the high season. Outdoor fitness equipment invites you to work out in the fresh air. Those who prefer to do sport in company when camping in France will find like-minded people on the multi-sports field. Afterwards, it's often off to the spa, where a whirlpool and sauna provide relaxing moments.

Gorges, lakes and cultural highlights - the best excursion tips

For many, Lake Pareloup is the most beautiful body of water in the Aveyron. From a bird's eye view, it looks a little like the famous lakes in Canada. There are many hidden bays along the 130 kilometres of rugged coastline - ideal places to cast your line. Carp, pike, zander and perch, among others, can be found in the 1,300 ha of water. Within a 10-kilometre radius of Camping Les Genêts, other lakes such as Lac de Villefranche-de-Panat and Lac de la Gourde invite you to take a trip. Cyclists can cycle around the lake of Parelpoup on a 27-kilometre tour. The Aveyron is also a paradise for hikers: the Circuit des Passerelles is 7 kilometres long, leading over footbridges and offering a magnificent view of the Dourdou canyon. A few metres in altitude have to be conquered on the path to the Fontaneilles-Piedes valley, which is just over 10 km long. The trail passes the romantic Pyrelade Castle, which towers over the Tarn. A canoe trip will also leave a lasting impression: several routes set off from Saint-Antonin into the magnificent gorges of the Aveyron. The luxurious Les Genêts campsite on the Pareloup reservoir is perfect for families, water sports enthusiasts and nature lovers. The campsite offers a varied sports and leisure programme for all guests.
