Everything about the campsites by the water in Doubs

Doubs has 11 listed wateside campsites, shared between river and lake: six establishments border a watercourse, mainly the Doubs itself, and five benefit from a body of water. The river giving its name to the department winds in wide loops through Jura franc-comtois, offering landscapes of cliffs and meanders particularly photogenic.

Lake Saint-Point, one of France's largest natural lakes, concentrates the bulk of the department's lake offering, in Upper Doubs. The Doubs gorges, particularly around the Doubs fall, complete an offering focused on nature and freshwater activities.

With 11 campsites, Doubs remains a modest but well-identified destination for river or mid-mountain lake camping, between Besançon and the Swiss border.

to discover

What to see and do in Doubs

Doubs is crossed by the river of the same name, known for its spectacular loops and the Doubs fall, a natural waterfall of several dozen metres accessible by boat from Villers-le-Lac. Lake Saint-Point, in Upper Doubs, completes the natural offering with its calm waters bordered by conifers.

Besançon, the department's prefecture, is renowned for its Vauban-built citadel, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site, and for its historic centre installed in a loop of the Doubs. The Jura massif, with its conifer forests and cheese factories, completes the franc-comtois landscape.

Between Vauban citadel, natural waterfalls and mid-mountain lakes, Doubs offers dense natural and built heritage over a restricted territory.
