A family run site, le Rouge Gorge has 93 grassy touring pitches, plus some units for rent (2-8 people) and privately owned caravans and chalets. Slightly sloping and undulating pitches are on grass in a garden-like setting and a small wildlife pond (fenced) is in the centre of the site. Being the starting point for many hikes, this site is perfect for walkers and cyclists alike with easy access to Barbin viaduct along the Sèvre Nantaise. If that sounds too energetic, simply enjoy the covered, heated swimming pool with paddling pool and jacuzzi. There is also a playground with bouncy castle and trampoline available for children in July and August, as well as a children's club and organized evening entertainment.
Due to its excellent location, it makes a great base from which to visit the spectacles of Puy de Fou (9 km) and the steam railway which runs from Mortagne-sur-Sèvre to Les Herbiers. This is also an excellent stopover for those heading to and from southern France and Spain, or the ski-resorts. The largest Japanese garden in Europe, at Maulevrier, is also worth a visit.
