Where to sleep near Lao River: glamping and River Camp
Where to sleep near Lao River in Pollino: glamping, hanging tents, camping and River Camp in Laino Borgo, with comfort, nature and outdoor activities included.
To sleep near the Lao River, in the Pollino Park, the most immersive solution is the experiential camping of River Tribe at Laino Borgo: a few meters from the water you will find glamping with the comforts of a hotel, tents suspended among the trees for the more adventurous and classic camping pitches. It is the ideal way to combine an overnight stay with nature and outdoor activities, waking up to the sound of the river and trees.
Let's see the different accommodation options.
- Glamping: the union between glamor and camping. The tents are designed with attention to the smallest details, with a memory foam mattress, fresh linen, small rituals such as a tea kettle and a breakfast in the morning. Perfect for those who want to experience nature without giving up comfort, including families and couples.
- Tents suspended among the trees: for those looking for a more adventurous and original experience, literally sleeping suspended in the woods, lulled by the quiet of the Pollino.
- Camping traditional: pitches for tents, also for rental, ideal for those who love classic camping and a more essential and free stay.
The village is designed as a small community surrounded by greenery, with common areas and the Jungle Bar where you can meet after activities for an aperitif or breakfast with freshly baked croissants. Everything is designed to integrate with the environment and reduce the impact on the territory, in line with the sustainable philosophy of River Tribe, also certified by Legambiente Turismo.
The big advantage of sleeping here is the proximity to the experiences: from your tent you can walk to the starting point of rafting, organize trekking to the loricated pines, river walking, canyoning or go out to mountain bike. Morning on the river, afternoon walking and night under the stars, without moving.
Some advice for your stay:
- Book in advance: places are limited to guarantee quiet and exclusivity.
- Bring layered clothing: at night, even in summer, it can be refreshing in the river area.
- Consider a package that includes accommodation and activities, so you only think about living the experience.
If you prefer more traditional accommodation, the area also offers farmhouses, B&Bs, hotels and lodges spread across nearby villages, which the staff can help you locate. But to truly experience Lao River, sleeping at River Camp makes all the difference. Discover the accommodations and contact River Tribe to book your night in Pollino.
