The Camping Napoléon is located just outside of Gap, the capital city of the Southern French Alps and has been there for almost half a century. It's located along the famous RN85 (also known as.. Route Napoléon!), a classic road in the French Alps that goes from Nice to Grenoble. The legend says that it is the road Napoléon followed when he came back from exile on the Elbe Island. History doesn't say if Napoléon stopped over for the night at the camping named after him, but today's campsite is definitely a great place to stay!
Open from April to November, it is ideally located between the Champsaur Valley and the Serre-Ponçon lake, two sites where most of our activities are run, and it's less than 5 minutes away by car from the centre of Gap and its many restaurants, bars and shops and lovely Saturday morning market.
The Camping Napoléon offers many accommodation options, from the traditional camping pitch to the brand new, fully fitted premium 50m2 wooden chalet. The views over the surrounding mountains are spectacular. There is a bar that offers food in the evening, a swimming pool, a playground for children of all ages, a pétanque pitch, and many events are organized every evening for the residents (yoga classes, cooking classes, etc.). All pitches have water and electricity, and there's a wi-fi connection available everywhere in the campsite.
From the Camping Napoléon, it will take you about 15' to reach the beautiful Champsaur Valley, and about 20' to the Serre-Ponçon lake, the largest artificial lake in Western Europe.

When you arrive and check in you will be given the full campsite policy and rules for the swimming pool, visitors, circulation of cars etc. Here are some of the most important rules that you should know about before you arrive.
Campsite Chalets:
Check in is after 16H00 and check out is before 10H00.
You will be asked for a security deposit of 200€ when you check in. Any missing items or damaged items identified will be taken from this deposit. In this case the balance will be returned to you by post within 2 months.
Sheets and bedding are provided in each chalet. A set of towels is available for an extra 6€ per person.
The chalets are rented in a clean and serviced state and must be returned in the same state at the end of your stay. This requires a full clean (bathroom, toilet, fridge, mirrors, floors, crockery, bin, beds stripped etc). Food must not be left in the cupboards. If the chalet is not cleaned to the expected standard, 50€ will be deducted form your deposit. It is possible to request a cleaner to do the end of stay cleaning for a fee of 50€ but the chalet will still need to be left in a tidy state with crockery washed and put away and all bins emptied.
If you wish to leave before your check out date, there will be no reimbursement.
No animals are permitted in the chalets.
