Campsite Description

Domaine de Chalain is a verdant site which lies alongside an undisturbed natural lake, which is ideal for fishing and canoeing. It has large, grassy pitches and the on-site facilities are outstanding with a well-stocked shop, inviting bar and cosy restaurant which has beautiful views over the lake. There is also a fantastic pool complex, complete with waterslides, turkish bath and a sauna, perfect for those lazy days. There is an entrance fee payable for the pools, but Eurocamp Independent customers are entitled to one free visit per person every day. The adjoining lakeside beach is a great place to soak up the sun, but you can also swim, hire a pedalo or try your hand at canoeing. Location: At the eastern end of the lake, 4km from the town of Doucier, which lies east of Lons-le-Saunier.
