Ferme du Plantier, Mountain farm campground in Ouzous, France.
The Ferme du Plantier is a campground on a mountain farm with 17 pitches that have electrical hookups and sit just 400 meters from a stream. The site in the Hautes-Pyrénées includes washing machines, dishwashing areas, and free WiFi for guests.
The farm has raised sheep and cattle for generations in the Pyrenees, preserving traditional mountain farming methods of the region. Today it shows guests how local livestock raising and food production continues in the mountains.
The campsite maintains close ties with local food production, providing visitors direct access to farm-produced meat and regional agricultural products.
Most guests visit between June and September when mountain weather is best. The location makes it easy to access hiking trails and sits close enough to villages for basic supplies.
Most hikers do not realize this location opens directly to trails beneath the Pibeste mountain massif, a protected nature reserve. Starting from here, visitors quickly reach passes like Soulor, Tourmalet, and Aubisque that often go overlooked on maps.
