Directions & Parking
Getting there
Use the campsite’s signed upper entrance on the tourist road through the Gorges de l’Ardèche, at Le Bas Lavis / La Madeleine, Saint-Remèze. Follow signs for Camping La Plage des Templiers; the separate similarly named campsite at Roquebillière is not this venue.
Parking
Leave your vehicle in the campsite’s upper parking area in the oak woodland beside the gorge road. Motor vehicles, caravans and motorhomes cannot descend into the camping area. Arrange access and day admission with the operator before taking the path down.
Finding the naturist area
From the upper parking and arrival point, take the campsite’s pedestrian path down into the canyon. The tourism office describes a walk of around 400 metres; the route leads to reception, camping pitches and the naturist pebble beach beside the Ardèche. A cable goods lift carries luggage, not passengers; arrange its use with the campsite.
Where naturism applies
The naturist space is the managed campsite and its riverside bathing frontage below the road. The parking/map reference is above the river and is not the beach itself; use the signed campsite descent.
- The path is the final access for everyone; choose footwear suitable for a sloping stony trail.
Access guidance checked 2026-11-12. Follow current signs and any instructions from the venue or land manager.
