Mus is a village in Gard (30121), at the entrance to the Petite Camargue Gardoise, between Nîmes and Montpellier. Its narrow streets, stone houses, and traditional farmhouses make it a peaceful stop, just a few minutes from Camping Les Amandiers.
The heart of the village can be explored on foot. You’ll find the Saint-Jean-Baptiste church and several typical farmhouses, nestled among the vineyards.
