Explore the Jura region
Set off to discover a unique natural and artisanal heritage in the heart of the Jura, a region of contrasts with landscapes sculpted by time. Mountains, lakes, deep valleys and forests follow one another in successive terraces, from the Revermont to the Haut-Jura.
A true gem shaped by glacial erosion, the Jura is home to spectacular sites such as the Hérisson waterfalls, Lake Chalain, the 4 Lakes viewpoints, and the steephead valleys of Baume-les-Messieurs and La Frasnée.
A stay at a campsite in the Jura promises a complete immersion between unspoilt nature and charming villages. Enjoy hiking trails around Lake Bonlieu, visit Comté cheese dairies and museums, or wander the streets of Dole, Arbois and Saint-Claude.
For a vibrant discovery of Jura heritage in the North East of France, visit woodcraft workshops, traditional cheese dairies, or artisanal pipe and eyewear makers. Sample the wines of Revermont or the famous Comté, born of a strong and cooperative agricultural tradition. Outdoor activities await as well.
During your stay at a campsite in the heart of the Jura, enjoy the outdoor activities of Bourgogne Franche Comté: swimming, fishing, canoeing, mountain biking or skiing, depending on the season. Each step invites you to explore a preserved and authentic land, where water, stone and wood tell a deep story.
A stay at a campsite in the Jura guarantees an unforgettable experience, blending nature, culture and a unique art of living. Let yourself be surprised by the richness of this exceptional heritage!
Why choose camping as a way to explore the Jura?
Camping is a wonderful way to explore the Jura’s wide open spaces and make the most of the great outdoors. Whether you’re staying in a tent, caravan, campervan or motorhome, your holiday allows you to easily alternate between days of hiking, swimming in the lakes and exploring the department’s villages.
For a little more comfort, the Jura also offers a wide range of outdoor accommodation options. Whilst you wait for the day when there might once again be a ‘Sites et Paysages’ site in the Jura, why not discover our nature campsites in other destinations across France?
