EUROPE
WALKS
ALONG THE MEDITERRANEAN AND IN THE FRENCH ALPS
There is no
reason to hang up your walking boots in winter. Provence is the land of
sunshine and blue sky most of the year. Winter days are the ideal time to enjoy
this region in the calm.
Our adventure
begins in Aix-en-Provence where we meet and travel to the well-known Bandol
vineyards. The picturesque small town of Cassis is the ideal location to
explore the calanques with their high cliffs and crystal blue waters.
Snowshoeing in
the winter paradise of Fouillouse in the French Alps offers a blissfully simple
way to enjoy mountain scenery in all its pristine power and tranquillity.
People have been using snowshoes to navigate winter landscapes for centuries
and there is no special skill needed. It is not dangerous but gloriously
exhilarating and opens a magical new world of enjoyment.
Our Hotels & Cuisine
The first three
nights are spent in the picture postcard village of Cassis. Our hotel is set in
a lush garden surrounded by flowers, palm trees, swimming pool and spa.
It is
only 5 minutes from the beach and very close to the magic calanques and Cap
Canaille.
The final three nights are spent in the French Alps and our charming
hotel is situated in the magnificent mountain village of Barcelonnette. Here we
can sample great food with a Mexican influence.
