Camping in the Limousin region
The Limousin region is really south central France and is made up of several departments, Correze, Haute Vienne and Creuse. Limousin is situated on the western edge of the Massif Central. The capital of the region is Limoges which has a busy airport just to the north of the city. We have linked to a map of the region so that you can get your bearings. It is a great area for camping and mobile home holidays, with unspoilt countryside and lots of walking/cycling to keep you fit. This is one of the least populated areas in France, and possibly one of the most beautiful.
The rivers Creuse, Vienne, Auvézère, and Corrèze flow through the Limousin region, so that means exploring by boat and probably a spot of fishing and cooking your catch by the camp fire or on the BBQ!
From Calais go south west to Rouen, down to Chartres and then down again to Orleans and Limoges. It is a slightly longer route than the Paris Péripherique but avoids any possibility of taking a wrong turn on the Boulevard Péripherique and ending up lost in Paris!
