Monthly Car Boot Sale at Camping les Galets de Banassac-Canilhac

A Monthly Car Boot Sale All Season at Camping des Galets

The Camping les Galets in Banassac-Canilhac offers an original initiative: a recurring monthly car boot sale, organized each month from April to October. This seasonal regularity makes it one of the most loyal treasure-hunting events in the Lot valley in Lozère.

Registration is simple and accessible: €2 per linear meter. Individuals from the commune, valley residents, and campers staying on-site can all register as exhibitors and offer their items. The clientele mixes local residents, holidaymakers, and passing tourists, creating a cosmopolitan and friendly exchange dynamic.

An Exceptional Natural Setting by the Lot River

Banassac-Canilhac is a commune in Lozère located in the Lot valley, between Marvejols and La Canourgue. Camping les Galets, situated on the riverbank, offers an exceptional natural setting for these car boot sales. The sound of the Lot river below, the pebbles on the bank, and the lush vegetation of the valley create a bucolic backdrop that makes these markets particularly pleasant.

The commune is also known for its Banassac earthenware, the excavations of which revealed the importance of a Gallo-Roman ceramic workshop, and for the presence of the La Canourgue viaduct that spans the Lot a few kilometers away.
