La Pergola Lac de Chalain Site no: JU011

At a Glance

Customer Rating

A spectacular mountain setting in the heart of the Jura, ideal for outdoor and watersport enthusiasts.

Situated on the wooded shoreline of the beautiful Lac de Chalain, La Pergola is only 4km from Doucier and a convenient base for exploring the lakes, forests, waterfalls and mountains of this stunning area. Much of the daytime activity centres around the lake and beach, where you can make use of windsurfing facilities. There is also an attractive swimming pool complex. In high season the parc becomes very lively, with plenty of organised entertainment. Our mobile homes are set on steep terraces and may be unsuitable for customers with mobility problems.

Please be aware that there will be a large group on site from the 24th - 27th June and there is an increased risk of noise during these few days.

Only conventional swimwear, such as swimming trunks are allowed in the pool.
