You will be staying in the heart of the French Alps with all of the activities a short drive from the chalet.
We have the following facilities available in the area;
Walking
There is fabulous walking from the door of the chalet, for all fitness levels. Whether you want to mosey around the local villages or head up to a mountain top, we provided guided walks or, if you want some time to yourself, talk to us about the best places to go.
Adventure Assault Course
There are lots of Parcours Aventures in the area, which are similar to Go Apes in the UK. Swing from the trees, cross rope bridges and zip-wire through the forest.
Canyoning
Shoot down natural rock-slides, abseil down cliff faces and jump in to mountain pools. Following the river downstream, canyoning takes you in to the wild places for some extreme fun. Guides and equipment are provided.
White Water Rafting / Hydrospeed / Canoe-Rafting
The white water rafting base a host of activities for all ages and it is a great place to hang out, have a BBQ, and watch everyone come down the river. We highly recommend all of their activities!
Mountain Biking
There are 1000s of km of bike trails through the Alps. You can choose to follow a flat path along the river or head up to the ski lifts and hurtle downhill. We provided guided mountain bike rides or can advise you where to go to have fun. Bikes and equipment can all be hired locally.
Horse Riding
There are riding schools or places to hack out through the valley. If you want to head in to the mountains for the day, we can arrange hacks for all riding standards. Guides and equipment are provided.
Paragliding
There is nothing as magical in the world as soaring above the mountains like an eagle on a tandem paraglide flight. The instructors we use are all fully qualified so you’re in the best hands.
Climbing
There is some fabulous climbing in the area. Climbing is great fun for all of the family and you can be sure of a good work out. Take a guide and head out to the local climbs for beginners through to advanced climbers. If you don’t fancy a straight climb, get on to a Via Ferrata. Attached by a harness, you climb ladders set in to the rock and walk along hanging bridges in the mountains. This is great fun and you feel safe!
Summer Skiing
Summer skiing is available in Val D’Isere, an hour’s drive away. This can be arranged if required.
Swimming
There is an indoor and outdoor swimming pool in the nearby, as well as lake swimming in Brides Les Bains and Aime. Annecy Lake is also a must-do for those that love open-water swimming. It is boasted to be the cleanest lake in Europe and is a wonderful place to swim surrounded by the mountains.
Sailing, Kayaking and Waterskiing
There is fabulous sailing, kayaking and waterskiing on Annecy Lake. A great destination for the day. If you fancy something less strenuous, you can choose to chill out on one of the grass beaches by the lake.
