To the Côte d’Azur with your own tent

Without a heavy backpack but still low budget on the GR5 direction Côte d’Azur? You can do it with the “camping walking weeks” of Op Stoute Schoenen.

Every year, Op Stoute Schoenen organizes long walks on the mythical GR5 that runs from Maastricht to Nice. Check the site for the 2019 program.

 

If you sign up for the newsletter, you can be among the first to book. The number of participants is limited to 24 per week. Factoid: half of the participants are single women.

You sleep in your own tent. While you are walking, the van will take your stuff to the next campsite. You are free to walk on your own or to join a group of participants.

There is a large tent with benches, chairs and tables on the overnight stay.

Breakfast is ready every morning. Included are the packed lunches.

For 7.50 euros per day you can rent a tent. A sleeping mat is 4.50 euros per day.
