  • Riverside setting 10 minutes' walk from the small town of Meyrueis
  • Near the Gorges du Tarn and Mont Aigoual
  • Pool, climbing wall, bar, snack bar, shop and barbecues
There's some stunning scenery around Camping Le Capelan in the Lozère region: its setting on the banks of the Jonte river has the Gorges de la Jonte and Gorges de la Dourbie to the west, Mont Aigoual to the south-east and the Gorges du Tarn to the north – four spectacular spots you'll very much want to see on a Languedoc-Roussillon hol. Active types are well catered for around here, with walking, cycling and mountain bike routes all to hand from local town Meyrueis 10 minutes away, and fishing, rock climbing, canyoning, canoeing, rafting, horse riding and tennis all popular picks in the surroundings. Caves, medieval villages, animal parks and farms are within easy driving distance. Guests of all types have loads to keep them entertained on site in between all the caving and sightseeing, including fishing in the river, a heated pool, a climbing wall, two playgrounds, a large multisports pitch, two pétanque courts, table tennis, table football and snooker. For food (and vino), there's a snack bar and a bar (with satellite TV), a grocery shop, and communal barbecues. The amenities include two blocks with showers and toilets, or there are private bathrooms for sinking into soaks at the end of a long sightseeing day. The site also has a launderette with washing machines and tumble dryers.

Tennis courts are a kilometre away and horse and donkey riding within four. Caves, climbing, canyoning and gorges are all within 15 kilometres, including Dargilan Cave five kilometres away, the Aven Armand cave system within eight kilometres, and the spectacular Gorges du Tarn within 15 kilometres, the castle-lined canyon running from Quézac to Le Rozier. The Gorges de la Jonte, less known but also spectacular, is within the same distance. For les enfants, there's the Caussenarde Farm living museum 10 kilometres away, showing traditional farming in the south of France; the Randals Bison buffalo ranch, also within 10 kilometres, and the Vulture House bird park 12 kilometres away, to see some of the famed inhabitants of the Tarn and the Grand Causses Regional Natural Park.
