Le Grand Large, Lakeside campground in Savines-le-Lac, France
Le Grand Large is a campground located directly on the shore of Serre-Ponçon Lake with more than 120 pitches spread across grassy fields. The property spans several hectares and provides areas for both short-term visitors and longer-stay guests.
The campground was established after the creation of Serre-Ponçon Lake in the 1950s, which transformed the Alpine region. This artificial lake brought new recreational opportunities and opened the area to tourism.
The site serves as a gathering place for people who enjoy water sports and come here to sail, windsurf, or paddle on the lake. These activities shape daily life by the water and draw visitors who share this passion.
The site operates daily during the warmer months from spring through autumn with reception available in the afternoon and evening. Visitors should aim to arrive early to secure pitches with the best views of the lake and mountains.
Many pitches offer unobstructed views of the lake with Alpine peaks visible in the distance, and these views become especially dramatic at sunset. This location advantage makes each stay feel special.
