Route overview

River country, wild wetlands, then the Mediterranean.

This route moves south in three distinct chapters. Settle by the Ardèche for river, cycling and stone villages; slow down among the beaches and open horizons of the Camargue; then finish with three nights beside the Mediterranean. Each relocation changes the feeling of the holiday without turning it into a sightseeing race.

Questions before you continue.

Do I need previous campervan or camping experience?

No previous experience is assumed. The route is presented with its driving rhythm, stops and practical context so you can understand the shape of the trip.

How much driving is involved?

The route map shows the planned shape of the journey. Actual journey times can change with traffic, road conditions and the stops you choose along the way.

Are the days fixed once I arrive?

The route gives the journey its shape, but CampsAway is not designed as a minute-by-minute escorted itinerary. The aim is to give you a clearer plan while keeping the independence that makes this style of holiday appealing.
