Camping Onlycamp at Lake Roybon

Visit the extraordinary Palais Idéal, a fantasy palace built between 1879 and 1912 by postman Ferdinand Cheval. During his daily rounds, he collected stones with which he single-handedly built an entirely personal world. Without any architectural plan, the structure grew into a surreal whole full of towers, sculptures, animal figures, and inscriptions that were entirely hand-formed. Cheval drew inspiration from his dreams and from the shapes of the stones he found along the way. Today, the palace is seen as an important example of naïve art and is listed as a historic monument in France. A visit allows you to experience the impressive richness of detail up close.

Visit the charming Pont-en-Royans, where colorful houses hang spectacularly above the river and give the village its unique character. Wander at your own pace through the narrow streets and along the water, while discovering new views around every corner. Along the way, take a seat on a terrace and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere that makes this place so special during a day in the Vercors.

Visit the Jardin des Fontaines Pétrifiantes and discover how lime-rich water literally turns plants to stone. You will walk past waterfalls, moss, and exotic vegetation that together create an almost fairy-tale atmosphere. The flowing water constantly forms new structures, keeping the garden always in motion. Take the time to look around calmly and be surprised by this special natural phenomenon. A short but impressive stop during your stay.
