Climbing the Eiffel
Tower, maybe, but

curious, you put aside
your reservations, and
here you are! So let's
delve into this and
show you something
new.
Yes, it's true: Paris
has a nice selection
of camping grounds.
Or, more accurate, in
the vicinity of Paris.
Some of the finest
camping sites near
Paris are located at
Brittany, Languedoc,
Aquitaine and Vendee.
Brittany
Brittany camping
grounds offers a view
of intriguing
buildings. The
campground offers fine
entertainment.
Brittany is a
wonderful place to
camp. Be sure to
immerse yourself in
the history of the
area. You will surely
enjoy the tales of the
past. Hear of the
folklore, stories of
King Arthur and
Merlin.
You will be treated to
stunning views of
lighthouses, which are
spread over
rock-strewn inlets,
bays and coves. You'll
meander through quaint
villages that friendly
Parisians call home.
Your ears will be
treated to lovely
music emanating from
drums, harps, flutes
and bagpipes. The
serene tunes will take
you back in time and
allow you to
experience the legends
and myths of the area.
Languedoc
If you're a nature
buff, be sure to walk
through the luscious
green/purplish
pathways that lead to
ancient structures.
This area is highly
regarded by the
French. You'll figure
out why once you set
your eyes on it.
The beaches are milky
white and the air
laced with the smell
of scented fields of
lavender lilacs. As
your hunger takes
hold, be sure to reach
for the plentiful,
hardy ripe grapes.
Close to this
attractive park are
labyrinths of walkways
that take you to some
of Paris’s most highly
regarded antique
shops.
Aquitaine
Aquitaine is the
capital of Bordeaux.
Camping in Aquitaine
will put you on one of
Paris’s finest sandy
beaches. The beach
stretches all the way
to Spain. This
generally sunny beach
has a patch of
vineyards that stretch
along the mountains of
Pyrénées. Nestled in
these glorious
mountains are an
abundance of
glistening glaciers,
ponds and lakes. In
the forest, grapes
(the fruit of choice
here) on vines can be
found in abundance.
Vendée
If you want comfort,
relaxation and
adventure then Vendée
Camping is the place
to go. This area has a
gorgeous sandy beach
and golf courses,
museums, wildlife,
monuments and other
fine treasures. You
can even go surfing or
diving.
Vendée lies in the
central west portion
of France. The area
surrounds the Atlantic
Bay and stretches onto
the south-east parts
of France.
Vendée at one time
served as a
battleground. Today,
however, the area is a
peaceful enclave with
water everywhere. Mont
Mecure is Vendée's
highest point,
standing 935 feet in
the air.
At Vendée you'll
discover several
hundred miles of
beaches. On the south
end of the beach is
Paris’s nude beach.
The nude beaches are
at Pointe d’ Arcay,
which is south of La
Faute sur Mer.
