Campi-Puces — Céaux-d'Allègre

The Campi-Puces of Céaux-d'Allègre

At the foot of the Mont Bar volcano (1,137 m), a Natura 2000 listed site, the municipal campsite of Plan d'Eau de Céaux-d'Allègre offers every summer an event that is as original as it is endearing: the Campi-Puces. This summer car boot sale takes place on the first Sunday of July, August, and September, in the green setting of the campsite, between the body of water and the fir forests, for a gathering combining treasure hunting, relaxation, and conviviality.

A car boot sale in the heart of the campsite

The originality of the Campi-Puces lies in its setting: located directly within the campsite grounds, it naturally blends holidaymakers, locals, and passing visitors. Occasional sellers can set up for free, with no reservation required, which encourages spontaneous participation and gives the market its eclectic and warm character. Forgotten items from caravans, holidaymakers' treasures, and articles brought by locals make up an ever-changing market.

Musical aperitif and catering

The Campi-Puces is not just about the car boot sale. Musical entertainment accompanies the morning, and a musical aperitif concludes the day in good spirits. The campsite has a snack bar and a refreshment stand open for the occasion, allowing everyone to have lunch or a drink while enjoying the exceptional natural setting of the site.

Céaux-d'Allègre and Mont Bar

Céaux-d'Allègre is a commune in the Allègre basin, in Haute-Loire, known for its tranquility and volcanic landscapes. The Plan d'Eau de Langlade campsite is nestled in a wooded valley, on the edge of a pond and the Borne river. The proximity of the Strombolian crater of Mont Bar, unique in Europe, makes this site a popular nature destination for families and hikers. The Campi-Puces adds an original summer animation that fits perfectly with the spirit of the place.
