  • Quiet family campsite with mountain views in the Pyrénées-Orientales
  • A 20-minute drive to Porté-Puymorens; Mont-Louis Citadel 25 minutes
  • Five minutes’ drive to shops in Puigcerdà and tapas bars in Llívia
Surrounded by the mountains of the Pyrénées, Camping de la Gare is set among trees on the outskirts of the tiny rural village of Ur. It’s 10 minutes’ drive from the Spanish enclave of Llívia and five minutes from the main border with Spain at Puigcerdá, so staying here you can explore two countries for the price of one. This laid-back spot is a handy base for sporty types – and all levels of ability – to get out and about on the hiking and mountain-biking trails of the Pyrénées-Orientales. In winter, several ski slopes can be reached in less than half an hour’s drive, and there are also spas within the same distance – blissful for soothing aching muscles after a day on the slopes. Of course, some of you may choose to laze on your spacious, grassy and shady pitches with just the song of birds as accompaniment – it’s your holiday, after all. There’s no restaurant at Camping de la Gare, but you can fire up the barbecue, and stock up with essentials from the basics stores in Puigcerdà. Not keen on alfresco cooking? The pretty Catalan town of Llívia has a scattering of tapas bars and restaurants serving robust regional fare, and there are bakers and pizzerias in Ur (both five minutes’ drive) as well. Simple facilities on site stretch to washing machines and dryers, bedding rental and the hire of pushchairs and cots if you’re travelling with babies.

Local attractions

Anyone chasing an adrenaline rush can go canyoning or riverboarding down the Segre River (five minutes’ drive) or paragliding (15 minutes) over the peaks of the Pyrénées. Want a gentler way to see the spectacular landscape? Grab the boots and go hiking on Cerdanya trails (35 minutes), or play golf with a backdrop of mountains at Club de Golf de La Cerdanya (10 minutes). Better still, let the train do the work for you, and board the Petit Train Jaune from Enveitg (five minutes) to chug through dramatic alpine scenery right up to Bolquère, the highest ski resort in France. And talking of skiing, the resort of Porté-Puymorens (20 minutes) is good for all levels of skill, while Espace Cambre d’Aze (25 minutes) has lots of green slopes for novice skiers. When you’ve worn yourselves out canyoning or skiing, take to the waters at the Roman Baths of Dorres (10 minutes) or the hot baths at Bains de Llo (15 minutes) to rejuvenate tired legs. Take a day off from sporty stuff and tour the Mont-Louis Citadel (25 minutes), built in 1679 by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban to protect the French border from attack, and now open for guided tours of its towers and ramparts.
