Camping de Nevers

Due to its ravishing riverside locale right near the city sights of Nevers, lots of outdoor activity and sightseeing opps await nearby. First off, Camping de Nevers lies on the pilgrimage Santiago de Compostela route for visits to St. Bernadette's Shrine – you can join a cycling trail along the river and canals 500 metres away, and a walking trail lies around a kilometre from base too. For further outdoor amusement you can fish in the river and hire canoes and kayaks nearby, and there’s a skatepark and BMX park a mere 100 metres away where skilled small people with the right kit can demo their skills among the rails, jumps and halfpipes. Steelier souls might also be interested to learn that there’s a skydiving centre six kilometres from the resort Walk less than 15 minutes into the centre of Nevers and you’ll reach the city’s main shopping street, Rue Francois Mitterand, for window/actual shopping, people-watching from café terraces and sampling the city’s sweet treats (many patisseries, crêperies and chocolatiers are around here). Also in the city is a miniature golf course and bowling alley for littlies’ entertainment, as well as a casino for grownups and a whole heap of bars, restaurants, museums and galleries.
