Camping des Ballastières, Lakeside campground in Champagney, France.
Camping des Ballastières sits on the shore of a recreational lake with space for tents, caravans, and motorhomes as well as mobile homes. The site has a swimming pool, restaurant, children's play area, and free wireless internet available everywhere.
This site developed on the grounds of former quarries that were transformed into recreational lakes. The conversion of these excavated areas made the land available for leisure and outdoor pursuits.
Located in the Vosges Mountains area, the campsite provides access to regional attractions including the Le Corbusier Chapel in nearby Ronchamp.
The grounds are open from April through October with facilities suited for families and those interested in fishing. Arriving early in the day helps secure the best location, especially during weekends or peak summer periods.
Guests can participate in catch-and-release fishing where they target carp in the adjacent lake system. This approach appeals to visitors who prefer to return their catch to the water rather than keep it.
