Klaar voor een bijzondere nacht en een geweldig verblijf in Pilat?

Camping Le Cotttet ligt in het hart van de toeristische regio van het Pilat-massief, dat zich in het departement Loire bevindt, ten zuidoosten van de stad Saint-Étienne en ten zuidwesten van de steden Vienne en Givors. Het biedt uitzicht op de Rhône-vallei (in het zuidoosten) en de Gier-vallei (in het noorden). Het massief grenst aan vier departementen: Rhône, Isère, Ardèche, Haute-Loire, en ligt ook vlakbij de Drôme. Het is dus veilig te zeggen dat „Diversiteit” het sleutelwoord is.

De activiteiten in Pilat richten zich op natuur, sport en cultuur: Diverse evenementen voor kinderen en ouders, wandelen en mountainbiken, paragliden, het ontdekken van het erfgoed van de regio: dorpen, monumenten… Het ontdekken van de uitzonderlijke wijnen van de regio... In het Regionale Natuurpark Pilat, gelegen tussen Saint-Étienne en de Rhône-vallei, bestaat Pilat uit kleine regio’s met uitgesproken kenmerken. Deze verschillen in hun klimaten, landschappen, soorten bebouwing en manieren van landgebruik. Samen vormen ze een middelgebergte, een ware waterbron voor de steden in de omliggende valleien.

Het Regionale Natuurpark Pilat beslaat 700 km². De heuvels van de Rhône, het land van fruitbomen en wijngaarden, gaan over in hoogvlakten met bossen en veeteelt. Dennenbossen, beukenbossen, gorsehellingen en grasvlakten zijn typische landschappen van Pilat.

We nodigen je uit om contact op te nemen met het Maison du Parc du Pilat om zoveel mogelijk toeristische informatie te verzamelen: Regionaal Natuurpark Pilat - https://www.parc-naturel-pilat.fr.
