ATHPA FAQ
All the answers you need to prepare your camping vacation in the Tarn. Accommodation, pets, payments, facilities and reservations.
What is ATHPA?
ATHPA stands for Association des Campings du Tarn. It’s not a campsite, but the association that works with all the campsites in the Tarn. We don’t have our own pitches or rentals, the Tarn campsites do.
Our site lists all the outdoor accommodation in the Tarn and allows you to book most of them.
If you’d like to get in touch with a particular campsite, you’ll find its contact details on its page. If you have a more general inquiry, don’t hesitate to send it to us by e-mail at karine@campingtarn.com or by telephone on + 33 (0)5 63 36 18 44.
What leisure facilities are available at a campsite in the Tarn?
They are numerous and varied: restaurant or snack bar, bar or refreshment bar, swimming pool, paddling pool, sports fields (soccer, tennis, volleyball, etc.), table tennis, table soccer, bowling green, children’s playground, fitness area, gym, massage corner, etc.
You’ll find this information in the detailed description of each campsite.
Certain facilities can be used as search criteria in the “campsite” tab, to highlight only those establishments offering this type of service.
Can I visit the Tarn with my camper van or my van?
Yes, of course!
You can choose to stay at one of our small campsites in the Tarn, which have special pitches for you, or traditional camper pitches at your disposal, with all the collective services and facilities offered to their customers…
Or to stay at dedicated, automated, free or paying reception areas.
