Activity breaks
Why not try packing more in this summer, and try one of our all-inclusive activity breaks? With transfers to and from Geneva (only 1hr away), food, accommodation and all activities included, you’ll be able to pay in pounds for a fantastic holiday in the French Alps.
Below is an example of a 7-night activity break. However, we are fully flexible on the length of your stay and which activities you’d like to do – please just contact us to discuss your requirements.
Saturday: Arrival day
We’ll get you kitted out with mountain bikes and protective gear, making sure you’re all set up for tomorrow’s biking adventure. Make the most of our out door hot-tub and enjoy a BBQ feast in the evening.
Sunday: Full day mountain biking
Your guide will take you on a Portes du Soleil adventure, where you will see some of the most spectacular scenery the Alps have to offer. Taking lifts up the steeper slopes so that you can enjoy the descents, you should have enough energy in the evening to enjoy a game or two at the local bowling alley (optional). Packed lunch included.
Monday: Half day whitewater rafting
We will drive you to your starting point on the river Dranse, where you will be kitted out in wetsuits and protective gear, and your white knuckle ride will begin. Your instructor will help you and your 8-man crew navigate through gullies and rapids, and we’ll be waiting for you at the other end with a picnic lunch to be enjoyed on lake Geneva.
Tuesday: Half day horse riding and optional visit to the adventure park
Saddle up and ride your steed in the mountains surrounding Les Gets in the morning, and return to the chalet for a BBQ lunch. While away the afternoon swinging through the trees in the adventure park (optional), or laze by the side of Les Gets’ very own bathing lake.
Wednesday: Rest day
Take the opportunity to explore the pretty town of Les Gets, career down the mountainside on a ‘devilkart’ or enjoy a relaxing round of golf, just a 10 minute walk from the chalet. Lunch and evening meal are not included on this day, but we will gladly make recommendations and reserve you a table in one of Les Gets’ many attractive restaurants.
Thursday: Full day hiking
Your local guide has intimate knowledge of the area, and can answer all your flora and fauna-related questions. You will trek through the beautiful local countryside, starting from the chalet, and take in spectacular views of Mont Blanc. Packed lunch included.
Friday: Half day canyoning and optional paragliding in the afternoon
Jump, swim, clamber and climb your way down the Nyon canyon, starting with an exhilarating 20′ abseil form a bridge that crosses the gorge. A truly exhilarating experience that will leave you catching your breath. If you’re still looking for more adventure, why not take a tandem paragliding jump, and soar through the air above Les Gets. Picnic lunch provided.
