The _Camping le Clapas_ is a small camping (85 pitches) in a exceptional location for families and nature lovers. On the right bank of the river, in the village of Salavas, in front of Vallon Pont d'Arc, Le Clapas is installed along the water at the entrance of the gorges of Ardeche. The road (_le chemin de la Vernède_) that leads you to the campsite has its end ... at the campsite : no traffic for more quietness and security. The camp, created in 1981, has a magnificent vegetation and many trees to ensure a natural shade.

    Cozy, family-friendly and quiet camping with a small private beach at the Ardéche river. The staff is very friendly and helped us out when we had a problem with the car. Thank you very much!

    Accommodation review

    A lot of trees enabled us to be in the shadow, while it was very hot. Clean toilets and showers.

    Der Platz ist etwas abseits vom Trubel sehr schön gelegen. Die sanitären Anlagen sind sehr sauber. Wir waren 3 Nächte hier. Eine Kanutour kann direkt am Platz gebucht werden. Wir wurden abgeholt. Es gibt Brot und eine Bar mit Imbiss. Die Plätze sind großzügig und schon schattig.

    Auffällig ist die freundliche Begrüßung, die Sauberkeit und der super Zugang zum Fluss. Ebenso ist es ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Wir würden wieder kommen.

    Klodeckel auf der Toilette.

    Accommodation review

    Alles gut. Positiv war die Nähe zum Trinkwasserbrunnen

    Sollte die Elektrik in Zukunft erneut werden sollten die Standard-Camping-Anschlüsse statt der normalen französischen Steckdosen eingebaut werden, hat aber keine Priorität.
