Camps available

French Language camp

In addition to comprehensive instruction in canoeing, campers receive twenty-four hours of practical instruction in French with qualified French teachers. Focus is on gaining confidence in the spoken language through class-based activities and visits to local places of interest. The emphasis is on conversation and practical application in everyday situations, with a minimum of grammar and writing.

Outdoor adventure Camp

In addition to comprehensive instruction in canoeing, campers follow an action-packed schedule that includes learning a range of outdoor activities such as rappelling, rock climbing, and caving. An emphasis is put on teaching the campers to support each other and work together while in a safe environment.  One full day is dedicated to a memorable mountain bike excursion into the local countryside. The thrilling ride takes the campers through a variety of terrain and paths with magnificent sights of the Ardèche region.
