RandoCamping - Finding Accommodations During Your Bike Trek

The RandoCamping site is free for users and hosts.

Its goal is to help trekkers find accommodations (usually by the night) all across France and to promote hosts who welcome trekkers satisfactorily.

Check it out here: https://randocamping.touteslatitudes.fr

The site is collaborative and supported by associations like Cyclo-Camping International or AF3V.

It lets you plan a trip or trek (on foot or by bike) by searching for accommodations along a route. The accommodations come from the DataTourisme platform (which aggregates information from Tourist Offices) and from users (trekkers & hosts).

Train lines and passenger stations are also listed. Clicking on a station can show you (if the data is available) how accessible the platforms are with a non-dismantled bike. Bike and hiking routes come from Waymarked Trails (which is based on OpenStreetMap).

You can find more details about the site’s features on this page (version 1.0): https://randovelo.touteslatitudes.fr/randocamping-v1/

thanks claudio’s note

that can definitely come in handy

Yes, I mentioned this site on "travel forum".

Here’s the start of my review:

Much more comprehensive than https://opencampingmap.org

because it also includes youth hostels and hikers' lodges in addition to campsites.

Too bad there are no hotels or guest rooms.

You can import your route and then request accommodation options within x km of it.

The creator let me know that in the next version of the site, bike-friendly rail info will be available—like how to get to the start of a trek, return from it, platform accessibility, etc.

Personally, on the road I’m loyal to the "Archies" app for campgrounds—but only for campgrounds.

Otherwise, I always use OSMAND when traveling; no internet needed. OSMAND lets you build a custom POI overlay from basic POI layers that are available. I created an "All Accommodations" overlay with every possible type of lodging, which I turn on as needed. That way I feel free from my plan. Plus, sometimes I roughly prep my hike.

I forgot to mention that I’m the designer and developer of the RandoCamping site 😛

The new version of the site includes: - Updated data (November 2025) from DataTourisme - A slightly more professional look (design isn’t really my thing) - Better performance and smoother rendering during zooms and map movements thanks to switching the graphics library (Leaflet → MapLibreGL)

So if you have any questions, don’t hesitate.

It’s almost harder to get a site or app known than to build it... So if you find it useful, spread the word. Personally, I don’t gain anything from it—it even costs me (hosting fees). But I’m also the first user.
