Le Lidon, Campground in Saint-Hilaire-la-Palud, France.
Le Lidon offers a family-friendly camping experience within the protected natural environment of the Marais Poitevin, featuring shaded pitches across 2.5 hectares with wheelchair accessible facilities.
The campground operates within the centuries-old Marais Poitevin wetlands, where human activity has gradually shaped this landscape into the Grand Site de France designation it received in 2010.
Located in the heart of the Green Venice, Le Lidon provides direct access to traditional canal boat excursions that showcase the region's rich biodiversity and time-honored marsh navigation practices.
The facility operates daily from 14:00 to 20:00, features a heated swimming pool open June 15 to September 15, and accommodates pets under 20 kg with proper vaccination documentation.
Guests can embark directly from the campground's private dock onto canal adventures through France's second-largest wetland, observing kingfishers, herons, and occasionally otters in their natural habitat.
