We arrange small, exclusive hike, cycle and ski trips for individuals as well as for corporate groups. Every season we also host a few very popular scheduled trips open for everyone to sign up on. For those seeking breathtaking environment, action, challenges or just getting peace of mind by moving your feet ahead, the PACA region, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, offers easy access to a vast variety of fun activities. Perfect to combine with a few days of sunbathing, museums, good eating, vineyard visits and more along the Côte d'Azur coast.

 
 

Hike and trail

The unique location, with both Mediterranean and Alpine environments makes it one of Europe’s premier hiking destinations with a broad variety within a limited geographical area.

Half-day, full day or multi day hikes, tailored to your abilities and needs whether it’s hiking on high altitude peaks, challenging yourself on a via Ferrata or hiking with views of both mountains and sea. We can tailor hikes going between cabins or a stay on a mountain farm. Do you want to add doing yoga on the mountain, a donkey as walking companion, forest bathing, or maybe experience the mountains on a horses back? We’d be delighted to help you! Only the imagination sets the limits.

The vast network of trails along the coast and in the high Alps is also irresistible for those who prefer a more brisk pace, there is a rapidly growing trail running community in the region. We offer day trips and multi-day trips for trail running along the coast and in the mountains with a guide.

 
 
 

Cycling

PACA is one of the world's finest and renown regions for cycling. This is where many professional cyclists live and spend the winter, honing their form ahead of the big races.

We arrange road cycling along the coast and over iconic mountain passes, with a knowledgeable cyclist as your guide on one-day or multi-day tours tailored to your needs and level, for individuals and groups. High- performance bikes can be arranged.

We also warmly recommend you trying out cycling in mountainous terrain on e-MTBs, a super fun and challenging group activity.

 

Randonée

Mercantour Nationalpark is sometimes refer to as France's most unknown secret. This is where French mountain guides go when they want to have the mountains to themselves. It offers a unique opportunity to ski off the grid and make your own tracks. Winter season we arrange randonné tours in Mercantour with a certified mountain guide. Equipment can be arranged for the occasion.
