Car boot sale of the Foyer de Charézier

The Charézier car boot sale, on the shores of Lake Chalain

Charézier is a small village of 178 inhabitants located in the Jura lakes region, in close proximity to Lake Chalain. This glacial lake, the largest natural lake in the Jura department, has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since June 2011 for its remains of prehistoric lake dwellings. It is in this remarkable natural setting that the Foyer Rural organizes its annual car boot sale.

An authentic village car boot sale

The Charézier car boot sale is a human-sized event, reflecting the associative life of this small Jura village. Individuals set up their stalls to offer items they wish to part with: toys, clothes, crockery, books, trinkets, and small furniture. The atmosphere is family-friendly and relaxed, typical of Jura village car boot sales.

The Jura lakes region, an exceptional setting

Visitors to the car boot sale can complement their day with a walk along the shores of Lake Chalain, renowned for its turquoise waters and beaches. The Jura lakes region offers an exceptional natural heritage, with waterfalls, forests, and bodies of water, making it one of the most popular tourist destinations in Franche-Comté. The car boot sale is the ideal opportunity to combine bargain hunting with discovering this preserved territory.
