Search Eurocamp for great deals on camping in Burgundy
Camping holidays in Burgundy provide a taste of rural France which you will find relaxing and very different from home. The pace of life is slower, the weather is generally better (but not usually too hot), and there's plenty to do if you can tear yourself away from the amenities and facilities of the excellent campsites. The area is awash with history whilst activities are usually not too strenuous, such as easy walking and cycling, or canoeing on the canals.
If you prefer something a little more energetic, then the cycle path La Voie Bleu runs along the banks of the Saone southwards from Tournus towards Macon, or there's La Voie Verte cycle path between Cormatin and Cluny. Both these mostly off-road and well surfaced paths are easy enough for family trips, but offer some harder optional diversions through the rolling hills and vineyards.
