    Description

    We only have a gap left for the period
    !! 02.07. – 23.07.2026 !!

    Hello,

    We are a camping site located in the italian mountains at 1200 msl. The Valle Maira belongs to the cottian alps and is unique in Piemont. Our camping site includes 19 caravan pitches, lots of open space for tents, Bar-Restaurant, Mini-Market and 3 Apartments.

    We are a german couple that run the well-known campground since 2019 as the former operator retired.
    In 2023 we started to enroll with workaway and were very pleased with this new experience.

    We want to host only single persons. No couples or families. No dogs / pets.

    You can come with your own tent or camper. Or we can offer you accommodation in one of our small mobile home (roulotte). We can offer you full pension (in general we prepare mountain-style food with piemontese, german and swiss recepies, but, because it is sometimes asked: we do not offer vegetarian diet.
    On top we provide free laundry and free WIFI.

    We recommend providing your own health insurance cover.
    We run a drug free policy, meaning we do not tolerate the use of illegal substances at our property or while working.

    Thanks for checking our profile &
    we look forward to hearing from you,
    Sandra, Roland and staff

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    There will be enough time to interact with our guests as well as for exploring the outstanding mountain area and for outdoor activities like hiking, MTB, climbing, rafting (in Valle Stura). The Valle Maira has preserved its wild landscape and our remote life is detached from the comforts of the city. Similar things like freshly baked bread get here again a high appreciation.
    We speak German, English, Italian. At least one of the above languages is required.

    We need help in housekeeping (the type you need on a campsite: cleaning the sanitary facilities, taking away the garbage) and depending on the month as well as: weekly cleaning of the apartments, dishwashing, gardening (weeding and watering) and maybe even bar service.
    In Italy this job description is called “tutto fare” (the person who can do everything).
    😊

    Accommodation

    You can pitch your own tent or place your van on our campsite . The use of the sanitary facilities also will be free of charge. Or we can offer you one of our small and simple mobile home (roulotte).

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Having your own transport might be helpful as the campsite is in the mountain at 1250 msl near a small 60-soul-village. But the next bigger town (Dronero) is 45 Minutes by car away.
    Public transportation only starts 4 km away from us (2-5 times/day). Our staff is very successfull in hitch-hiking as the locals are very friendly and helpful.

    Please let us know the date (arrival-departure) when you would like to come to us. If you are not sure yet about exact dates, we need to know the period (month) and the duration of your stay (weeks).
    Thank you.
