Auvergne region in France is located towards the middle of the country and it is considered to be one of the hidden gems of the camping world. Camping Auvergne is the dream come true because of the unspoilt nature and lack of tourist crowds. There are more than a few hundred camping spots scattered all over Auvergne. All of them are evaluated by the authorities and awarded one to four stars. As a result, it is relatively easy to evaluate the quality of a campsite before actually getting there. The high season for camping Auvergne is considered to be from July to the end of August, the same as in the whole country.
While considering camping Auvergne, keep in mind that there is not much to do in terms of clubbing, shopping or city-life like activities. It is much more suited for nature lovers and people who want to escape their fast-paced city lives. The northern part of Auvergne is rather flat with plenty of camping spots to choose from. The scenery boasts the green Loire and Allier valleys stretching out as far as your eyes can see. The southern part of the region is much hillier and mountainous. It is also the biggest volcanic area in Europe. However, there is not anything to worry about because the volcanoes have not been active in thousands of years. On the plus side, there are many hot springs to be enjoyed by the camping lovers in Auvergne. There are also many Romanesque churches, dungeons and castles present. Camping Auvergne is sure to appeal to people who love nature and look for a different way to spend their holidays.
