Dear campers
The Municipality of Bédoin
We are delighted to welcome you to the La Pinède municipal campsite.
Located in the heart of the Ventoux Regional Park, we felt it was our duty to preserve our heritage and take steps to promote eco-friendly practices at our campground. We are very proud to highlight our commitment and our dedication to improving our practices regarding energy, water, waste, and more…
Of course, we are continuing our efforts to improve and satisfy you a little more each year.
A big thank you to all of you for your loyalty, and we hope your stay will be as pleasant as possible, surrounded by pine trees and the song of the cicadas.
