Within 10 miles of Campsite La Brouquere there are quite a few interesting tourist attractions and sightseeing trips. The region around Gondrin is still hardly known by tourists and thus still remains very much authentic and traditional. Touristic sites offer easy access and plenty of (free) parking facilities, but you won't find long waiting queues nor traffic jams. Isn't that promising for a great day trip in the country?
For more information follow the many links on the map below or have a look in the list of the many sightseeing suggestions at the end of this webpage.
