      Our small 3-star mountain campsite is located at an altitude of 850 meters at the gates of the Orlu National Reserve, a protected natural area where observing wild animals such as marmots, chamois or golden eagles reigns supreme!

      At "Camping des Ioules", don't look for the summer dance or the mojito bar because in our valley, it is the spectacle of nature and biodiversity that will surprise you.

      For the past two years, our campsite has been undergoing a complete transformation and renovation to offer you a natural, shared, and eco-responsible site, with:

      • Swimming pool (open July and August)
      • Essential grocery store (open July and August)
      • Multi-sports field
      • Biodiversity Trail
      • Community composter
      • Access to La Camina, "an active mobility route" for bicycles, strollers and walkers
      • Children's playground
      • LED-lit bowling alley
      • Heritage orchard and small fruit garden
      • Football pitch, ping pong table, approved
      • Free Wi-Fi

      In terms of scenery, the Orlu campsite stands out from the others due to its exceptional location on the banks of the Oriège river and facing the famous Dent d'Orlu.
      In the valley, you will also find a multitude of nature and leisure activities (House of Wolves, Akrobranch…) but also pleasant walks and hikes for the whole family.

      The Orlu campsite is only 5 km from Ax-les-Thermes where all services are available: medical centre (doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, dentists…), supermarket, farmers' market, souvenir shops, cinema, casino..


      Opening dates: April 1st to November 1st


      86 pitches: 80 to 100 m².

      Electrical equipment: 22 electrical outlets with 4 to 6 sockets are distributed throughout the campsite (6 Amps and 10 Amps). The sockets are French and European types, but we do not provide adapters.

      Water supply: 8 "water" points placed in strategic locations.

      A chemical toilet dispenser is available. No motorhome waste disposal facilities.

      Our campsite has two sanitary blocks, one of which is adapted for people with reduced mobility and includes a shower, sink, and toilet (separate facilities for men and women). In one of the sanitary blocks, we have created a baby nursery with a bathtub and changing table – a completely secure room. At the campsite entrance, there is a laundry room with a washing machine and dryer.

    Very friendly reception staff, very reasonable prices, a choice of pitches, well-shaded and perfect, new and very clean sanitary facilities. A place to remember!

    This is the third time we've rented a chalet/cottage for a week during the winter holidays. We are two adults and one child, and we booked a unit for six (though it's more suitable for four). The welcome is always excellent! They provide clear explanations and are very friendly. I'm giving it four stars (not five) because the accommodations could use a bit of updating. We first came in early 2022, and despite a fresh coat of paint and new sofa covers, the place still feels a bit dated. We look forward to coming back! :)
