Rich in artistic and cultural heritage, Lyon is a city where visitors love to stroll and taste local specialties. But the Lyon region also abounds in green spaces that can be enjoyed in every season. Staying in the heart of this region, at a welcoming campsite, is the perfect opportunity to combine nature with urban discoveries.

What to do in Lyon?
From the campsite, it takes only a few minutes to reach the city center of Lyon. Once there, take the time to explore each district and soak in their unique atmospheres. Between the Rhône and the Saône, the city’s history unfolds among 19th-century buildings and the typical traboules.
