Its location on the banks of the River Ardèche makes Camping Sandaya Soleil Vivarais the perfect place for those who love swimming and water sports.

Enjoy cycling, walking, fishing, rafting, horse riding or mountain climbing.In the surrounding area, there are picturesque, medieval villages worth visiting, such as Vallon-Pont-d’Arc (7 km) and Labeaume (9 km). The popular Pont d’Arc (11 km) is also not to be missed during your holiday in this region. Another famous sight is the Gorges de l‘Ardèche (35 km), a gorge measuring tens of kilometres, which is often called the Grand Canyon of France.
