Camping at one of the campsites in Franche-Comté is camping in a versatile region. The region is located on the Swiss border, with the Vosges Mountains to the north and the Jura Mountains to the east.

Eat Drink

The gastronomic discovery of Franche-Comté will of course take you past the vineyards. These offer typical wines from grape varieties that are unique in the world. Vin Jaune, Macvin, Vin de Paille, Crémant and other products form a wide range from which enthusiasts can choose. Prestigious 'appellations' such as the Etoile for promising regional wine and the lesser known such as the vineyards of Charcenne and Champlitte. The vineyards of Franche-Comté are well worth a visit and tasting.

When we talk about curing meat in Franche-Comté, we cannot ignore the immense farms with a 'tuyé' in the Haut-Doubs. The stone house is arranged around a space of 20 m2 with a huge pyramid-shaped wooden chimney above it: the tuyé. When all other exits were blocked by the snow, the mountain people went out through the tuyé. But the actual application of this chimney, which is characteristic of the Doubs, is the smoking of meat. This conservation practice is characteristic of Franche-Comté. Smoked pork products are eaten in the area from the mountain slopes of the Jura to the Vosges. Dried sausage, sausage, pate, poitrine…. The pig is prepared in thousands of ways to delight the taste buds of meat and meat lovers.

Historic castles and forts

There have often been fights around the campsites in Franche-Comté to maintain pride and identity, with world leader Julius Caesar and Louis XVI in the arena. The castles, forts and ramparts present have a rich history and are evidence of the setting during the struggle for autonomy. 'Franche' does not mean 'free and frank' for nothing. No wonder that the Franche-Comtese are known for their strong character.

Ideal for a sporty and active holiday

Green hills with winding roads, rich in blue lakes and rivers and snow in winter. In short, a paradise for hikers, fishermen, water sports enthusiasts, skiers, riders, cyclists, runners and wellness enthusiasts.
