We are based in the Southern French Alps and have over 15 years of experience specialising in activity holidays in this lesser known but idyllic, adventure capital of the Alps. The Southern French Alps includes several national and regional parks, including the Ecrins National Park and the Queyras Regional Park and is also home to the Serre Ponçon Lake, the largest reservoir of fresh water in Western Europe. It is an area rich in Alpine culture evolved over years of surviving in mountainous territory; with perched villages, small Alpine hamlets, citadelles, fortresses, abbeys, the route Napoleon and other historical sites and monuments testifying to the tough life and long ago battles in this region. The diversity and quality of wildlife and flora is famous worldwide.
