The Alps

Let’s gain altitude! At only two hours from the sea, extreme and snow sports enthusiasts, and hiking and wide-open spaces lovers will be able to hit the road and go to the Southern French Alps. In summer and winter alike, the sunny mountain ranges are an ideal playground. Discover the villages of an authentic territory, with a wild nature and breathtaking landscapes.

A setting of purity

Conducive to wellbeing and sporting challenges

Head inland to the Southern French Alps, where the air is pure and the sky is crystal clear. Green pastures, snow-capped peaks and natural stony slopes are the wild kingdoms of groundhogs, chamois and ibex. This lively and untamed nature, crossed by impetuous rivers, lends itself wonderfully to outdoor activities: hiking, winter sports, paddling and kitesurfing on the Serre-Ponçon lake. This pure and preserved nature is also to be admired. Wrapped in a blanket, watch the stars shine from the peaks. Set off to meet the wolves in the Mercantour National Park.

Culture and know-how

Travelling through the Alps is also about discovering the architectural heritage left by Vauban to Briançon and Mont-Dauphin, the local woodcraft and terracotta craftsmanship, and tasty culinary specialties that will bring you a touch of authenticity.
