Alan Rogers Review

Camping le Villard is a family run campsite situated high in the southern Hautes-Alpes between the beautiful Écrins National Park and the Queyras Regional Park and close to the picturesque market town of Guillestre. It is also near the important N94 Gap to Briançon road making it ideal for overnight or longer stays. The campsite is protected by the surrounding mountains and forests and has plenty of sun as the area has one of the lowest rainfalls in France. This site has approximately 100 pitches with 73 for touring on slightly sloping grass or hardstanding, all with 2-10A electricity.

The site lies in a valley rich in flora and fauna surrounded by larch forests on the towering mountainsides. Mont-Dauphin, with its 300-year-old fortress built by Vauban to defend the passes from Italy, is only a short distance by road. There are many exciting mountain passes well worth exploring.
