"Amazing location - almost like free camping - We stayed here for one night at the beginning of July 2020. The location is gigantic and the arrangement of the pitches almost makes it seem as if you are alone in nature - although there is a good infrastructure at the site. On the evening of our stay it got quite cloudy and the next morning there was nothing left to see of the surrounding mountains and glaciers - but we'll definitely be back!

"Beautifully situated - The site is really beautifully situated, terraced and open at the top, long cable is necessary, water nearby. Starting point for hikes. However, the Swiss arrive at the weekend and then unfortunately the partially locked toilet facilities are not unlocked, which leads to waiting times. And the absolute no-go is that wood is often taken from the forest and open fires are made, regardless of the smoke development. As the operators are only there for two hours in the evening, you have no opportunity to complain.

"Unique mountain scenery - If you are looking for peace and seclusion, this is the place for you! The plots in the lower part are very spacious. It is advisable to take a long cable with you. Shopping facilities in the village. Bread rolls can be ordered on site. Too bad that there is only one temperature for showering - rather too cold for me. Rather few showers-especially when the site is busy. This site seems to be very popular with the Dutch. Access with larger caravans/motorhomes quite challenging. We would love to come back!

"beautiful place in a great mountain scenery - A very nice campsite with a wonderful mountain backdrop! We stayed on the lower part of the site in July/August 2019 and had a fascinating panorama all around us. The pitches on this part of the site are exceptionally spacious and you have plenty of room. However, not so much in the sanitary facilities, which are quite tight. We often had to queue to shower, flush or go to the toilet. Many families come here in the main vacation season because of the great play and sports facilities for children. If you don't like the noise of children, you should come in the low season, when it's quieter. Overall a great campsite, we will definitely be back.

"beautiful mountain campsite - Beautifully maintained campsite with a direct view of the glacier, situated on a river, mostly flat pitches on various terraces with and without shade. Small kiosk, fresh bread rolls in the morning

"Most beautiful location on the glacier - Of all the camps I have visited with my tent and motorcycle, this is perhaps the most beautiful of them all. La Fouly is very remote, a village of 81 inhabitants. The camp at the foot of the glacier offers the impression of camping in the wild with the luxury of sanitary facilities and a reception. I was almost alone there with my tent in mid-September.

Our campsite is situated in a unique alpine setting surrounded by rich flora and fauna. At the edge of a glacial torrent and in front of an impressive mountain landscape, it is very quiet and many walks and hikes start …right at the campsite.
