Destinations

France - Dauphiné, Jura, Vosges

La douce France! Since 1975 we have been coming annually to the Dauphiné, an area in the French Alps (Chartreuse, Vercors, Les Ecrins), to enjoy nature, kayaking, hiking, running, climbing and other challenging outdoor activities. Since 2002 we also organize winter activities in the Jura. Challenge and fun! In 2022, the location in the Vosges will be added for Hike & Survival related topics.

Qua et Ou?

1. Travel – The participants go to the location with their own transport. The bus or train to Lyon or Grenoble (Dauphiné) or Morez (Jura) is also possible. Charavines is approximately 10 hours from Eibergen, Sault Brenaz at 9 hours, the site in the Jura (La Chapelle des Bois) at approximately 9 hours and Le Ménil in the Vosges at 7 hours.

2. Accommodations – During the activities in the Dauphiné we camp. In the Jura we sleep in a gite and we also camp (bivouac). It is also camping and/or bivouac in the Vosges.

3. Buy locally – As everywhere, in France it is also important to give the local population something. So buy your bread at a bakery, meat at the local butcher and have a nice meal in a restaurant or drink a beer in the local café.
