Overview

Active Travel Camps (ATC) is an international residential summer camp for 11 to 18-year-olds, taking guests on a whistle-stop tour through some of France’s most daring and beautiful adventure destinations. Adventurers will form lasting friendships as they climb, canoe and explore some truly spectacular places.

Starting in the Alps at our picturesque mountain base in Morzine, it's straight in with white-water-rafting, mountain biking, zip-lining through the rocky outcrops and kayaking on Lac de Montriond! Together with their new friends, they'll explore all that the Alpine landscape has to offer.

After this, they'll travel south to the Rhone-Alpes, exploring the stunning Ardeche River by canoe as eagles sore overhead and rapids rumble them along. Gorge hiking, treetop high ropes and a pre-historic cave visit form a bursting agenda, but there’s still time for some river swims and market visits.

In the last week, adventurers will head west to the beautiful white sand beaches of the French coast to spend their days commanding the seas and rivers, with activities ranging from catamaran sailing to paddle boarding, white water rafting, canyoning and windsurfing. All meals and transfers between sites are included in the price, as well as a once-weekly laundry service.

Under the care and supervision of our dedicated team of educators and outdoor activity professionals, your child will embark on a culturally-immersive outdoor adventure across a number of exciting European destinations. We also support non-native English speakers with our fantastic English as a Foreign Language programme. Remember to ask for more information when booking.
