Outdoor activities at Camping Les Castors
In the lush green setting of Camping Les Castors, located in Burnhaupt-le-Haut in Haut-Rhin, you’ll find a wide range of outdoor activities to fully enjoy the Alsatian nature. The campsite, bordered by forest and river, offers an environment conducive to relaxation and outdoor recreation, both summer and winter.
Swimming, bathing lake and fishing
The campsite features a natural and calm bathing lake, designed for family swimming. It’s a place where you can cool off, enjoy the sun, and spend time outdoors in a serene setting. To ensure everyone’s comfort, swimming is prohibited after 8 PM, and the water is tested every 15 days in summer. A grassy area around the lake allows you to lie down or set up for a picnic between swims. The gradual depth makes swimming accessible to children under parental supervision.
A second pond is reserved for fishing. Enthusiasts can set up with their personal equipment and purchase a permit at reception. It’s the ideal spot to combine relaxation and recreation by the water, in a peaceful setting. The banks are accessible on foot, and the tranquility of the place is conducive to both concentration and contemplation. Some campers enjoy going there early in the morning to enjoy the cool air and the sunrise over the pond.
Additionally, the campsite regularly maintains the surroundings of these aquatic areas to preserve a clean and pleasant environment for everyone. These waterside activities are central to the campsite’s offerings and allow guests to fully enjoy the beautiful days in Alsace.
Outdoor sports and games for all
The campsite provides a variety of outdoor equipment for all ages. You’ll find a pétanque court, a volleyball court, and several children’s playgrounds. These facilities allow campers to share friendly and active moments, whether as a couple, with family, or among friends. Tournaments or friendly games are often spontaneously organized among fellow campers, in a relaxed atmosphere.
The shaded areas and grassy spots on the grounds also allow you to relax at your own pace, or play more free-form outdoor games like frisbee, Mölkky, or rackets. Children can run freely while adults enjoy the peace and quiet or participate in the activities offered.
Simple but well-maintained equipment ensures easy and safe use, even for the youngest guests. Benches and tables are also placed around the play areas to allow families to settle in comfortably. The wooded setting provides coolness and serenity, ideal for extending your outdoor days without constraint.
Walks, hikes and nature discovery
Located on the edge of the forest and near rivers, Camping Les Castors is also an ideal starting point for walks or hikes. Whether you go on foot, by bike, or simply for a stroll, the surroundings offer a rich natural setting accessible to all levels. Both families and experienced hikers can find suitable routes, with departures directly from the campsite.
Campers can discover the local flora and fauna, take marked trails, or simply enjoy the tranquility of the Alsatian landscapes. The campsite encourages these nature outings to extend the relaxation experience. Maps or itineraries are sometimes available at reception to help plan your excursions.
