Les Ripettes… rich heritage and plenty to do

The campsite is a real gateway to the natural landscape, the region’s rich architectural heritage, its food and wine, and all kinds of outdoor activities.

The natural landscape

Between the Bresse and southern Burgundy, the campsite sits on the left bank of the Saône. This unique area has remarkable wetlands: the flood meadows. They are a haven for birds and home to exceptional plant life.

On the right bank of the Saône, you can admire the Mâconnais vineyards and their stunning landscapes, such as the Rock of Solutré.
