He puts his paw on your backpack as soon as you put it on the ground. He wiggles as soon as he hears "walk." And you really don't want to leave without him. Good news: in Ardèche, he is welcome.
Where to put your bowl for a few nights?
No need to make a big deal about finding accommodations where your dog is welcome. In Ardèche, many lodges, campsites, hotels, and guesthouses open their doors to the whole family, furry friends included. Some even have a cozy little corner for them, complete with a bowl, rug, and a smile from the owner. Whether you prefer a hammock in the shade or a chalet in the forest, there's always a roof over your head for the two of you.
Activities
Vacation doesn't necessarily mean kennels or compromise. In Ardèche, your dog is welcome in more places than you might imagine. Swimming, walks, restaurants, museums, canoeing... enough to fill your days (and your paws) without frustration or separation. Here are our ideas for doing it all, together, and without stress.
Stretch your legs
Stroll along the trails with your family, roll in the leaves, dip your paws in a stream, and smell the thousand scents of Ardèche nature. You've come to the right place to conquer the summits with your favorite companion!
Refresh your nose
What's more fun than a nice swim with your beloved pooch? So you can choose your swimming spot with complete peace of mind, we've selected beaches for you whose water quality is regularly monitored and where Fido will be welcome (on a leash).
And if you're worried about the famous cyanobacteria, don't forget: with the good news and with a few precautions, Toutounet will be safe.
A canoe trip?
Canoeing with your dog is great (except in the Ardèche Gorges nature reserve, where it is prohibited). It is possible in all other sections of the river, provided you never tie your dog to the boat (too dangerous in case of capsizing).
Bring a leash for breaks, some water, and ask yourself if he's really comfortable in a boat. Sometimes the best option is a nice nap in the shade, on dry land!
Go out all together
Because you can crave culture, beautiful dishes, or unusual places without having to give up your four-legged friend, we've prepared a selection of sites, restaurants, parks, and visits that welcome well-behaved dogs. Here, we all go out together.
