Pitch on the campsite (added by visitor 30 aug 2022)

  • Quiet and shaded site on the Doubs river five minutes from Chaussin
  • Canoe/kayak hire and lessons available
  • Garden, playground, table tennis and bar
You can, of course, canoe around here. Camping Le Canoë is by the Doubs river, for days of drifting by canoe or kayak along this watery length on the French-Swiss border: if you're new to the art or don't know where best to start, the site team can sort you out with lessons and vessel rentals from its sister site. You can fish from here too, or hire a bike to investigate the local countryside – armed with a packed lunch made for you by the Camping Le Canoë team on request. Elsewhere, it's a few minutes' drive to the town of Chaussin from your Jura department and Franche-Comté base, and about 50 minutes' drive to Dijon. Hiking's a popular pick around these parts too, along with horse riding, biking and wildlife watching in France's second biggest woodland: the Chaux forest, 40 minutes' drive away. For more watery times, the spa town of Salins-les-Bains is within 45 minutes. Camping Le Canoë is a green and spacious site, with a garden to laze around in after a session on the river. There's also a playground and table tennis to keep the kids occupied, while their keepers can sink a post-canoe drink at the on-site bar.

Liked: Great site with good sized pitches, electric hook-ups close by. Didn’t go to the restaurant/snack bar but looked nice! Also great to be able to swim in the river (~5 minute walk across the bridge). Toilet/shower block was fine too.

Liked: ....

Disliked: Unfreundliche Besitzer, wir waren mit Freunden unterwegs. Die waren nur zweit Erwachsene ohne Kindern und wir waren zwei Erwachsene mit zwei Kindern haben das selber Preis bezahlt. Bei Nachfragen warum zahlen die nicht weniger, mit gemischten englisch- französisch hat er gesagt dass Tarif so ist. Obwohl wir von den Buchung verschiedene Restbetrag hatten. Strom war für uns beiden in Preis gestellt pro Aufenthalt 24€ obwohl wir nur einen Verlängerungskabel dabei hatten. Den Campingplatz ist voller Mäusen.

From the manager: Diese Leute hatten zwei Stellplätze, wollten aber nicht für den Strom bezahlen, den sie an den anderen anschließen wollten. Sie kamen immer, um uns während der Schließung zu stören, und respektierten nichts. Wenn wir alles auf der Wiese herumliegen lassen, ist es normal, einen Nagetier zu haben . Sie respektierten nicht einmal ihre Reservierungstermine. Um zu fliehen, lösten sie mitten in der Nacht einen Alarm aus, der den halben Campingplatz weckte, aber nicht störte

Liked: Der Platz ist großzügig, die Toiletten sauber und das Angebot mit dem Kanu zu fahren auch sehr gut. Das Wasser ist klar und belebt von Fischen aber auch Reiern und anderen Raubvögeln. Die Kanus können unkompliziert ausgeliehen werden. Man kann zwischen 6km 15km aber auch Mehrtagestouren auswählen. Am Ende der jeweiligen Tour wird man abgeholt und zum Campingplatz zurückgebracht. Auf der Anlage hat man das Gefühl für sich zu sein trotz vieler Gäste in der Hochsaison. Es gibt viel Schatten aber auch schöne freie Wiesenflächen zum Badminton oder Guss oder Volleyball spielen. Es gibt Slacklines und weitere Spiele. Das Eselpaar Dana und Plume war eine Attraktion!

Disliked: Er hat keinen direkten Wasserzugang zur Doubs

Good and quiet camping perfect for short stay.

Local attractions

When you're (mostly) done with canoeing, horse riding, fishing and riverside hiking, make for town and village days around the region such as those in Dole, 30 minutes' drive away, or Burgundy capital Dijon (around 50 minutes). If you're still eager for active adventures, it's about 55 minutes from the site to Champagnole, a gateway town for treks and trips around the Jura lakes and mountains. More fishing and canoeing can be had at Jura's biggest natural lake Lac de Chalain, a short drive from Champagnole, or you can take the circular hike up to the Fontenu viewpoint for a look at the region's famed four lakes (see if you can see the remains of the 3,000-year-old stilt houses just below the lake's surface). Also have a look at Arbois (35 minutes), for the Château Pécauld and pretty views of the Cuisance river passing through town, and at Beaune (45 minutes), the famed commune in the middle of the Burgundy winemaking region.
