Make the most of the excellent scenery, by taking a barge trip along the canal, or cycle and walk along the tow path – a relaxing way to spend an afternoon while staying at a Languedoc campsite.

Béziers – this lively city is the wine producing capital of Languedoc and well worth a day trip while staying at a Languedoc campsite. Visit Cathédrale St-Nazaire, built in a commanding hill top position and giving stunning views of the surrounding area.
