Fans of glamping - a term for camping that's more glamorous, less rootsy and more comfortable - will love the unusual accommodations available for rent: Canadian tents, trapper tents, wooden chalets or converted trailers, this is an opportunity to treat yourself to a camping trip without cutting back on comfort. The more adventurous - and camping enthusiasts in tents or camper vans - will prefer pitches, available for rental, with or without electricity.

When it comes to leisure activities, you'll be spoilt for choice: first of all, the Véloscénie - the great cycling itinerary that links up with Mont Saint-Michel - passes through here, but Rambouillet also boasts numerous hiking trails, suitable for all levels. The big plus of the Huttopia de Rambouillet campsite is certainly its large heated natural swimming pool, with a paddling pool for the younger ones. With a terrace equipped with deckchairs, it's the place to be on sunny days!

The campsite also has the little ones in mind, with a children's play area, ping-pong tables and a beach volleyball court open all day long. During the summer vacations, Huttopia offers its Petits Trappeurs mornings in the style of a children's club, where kids aged 5 to 12 can come and enjoy fun activities led by qualified activity leaders: treasure hunts, creative workshops, big games, tree house building...
