Parc Description
Spectacularly positioned in the Dourbie Valley between the Tarn Gorges and the Cévennes National Park, you are assured of a warm welcome at this exceptional parc. Access has never been easier due to the new Millau Viaduct. Though very steep, the open terraced pitches offer fantastic views looking out over the nearby village of Cantobre which clings to the rock face. The parc offers many amenities, including a water park which has a lazy river and 3 slides suitable for younger children. In addition to this, there is a restaurant, bar and pizzeria housed in the medieval farm buildings at the bottom of the parc. Yet the real beauty of Cantobre is the breadth of outdoor activities on offer. A Walking and Wildlife guide will be available on parc for selected dates in early and late summer, providing a range of guided walks around the local area.
