3 days in Montélimar

For many years, Montélimar was a popular stop-off point on the vacation route. Before the 1970s, when the town was bypassed by the freeway, people took the famous N7 road, and families travelling from the north often stopped off in Montélimar. But not only that: Montélimar, with its architecture and perfumes, was quite simply the gateway to Provence.

48 hours in Chamonix

Megève, Saint-Moritz, Montgenèvre, Cortina d'Ampezzo, Chamonix-Mont-Blanc... the birthplace of winter sports remains uncertain. What is certain is that Chamonix played a major role in the conquest of uncharted peaks and the democratization of skiing. A legendary past that today blends with a more contemporary vision of the art of mountain living.

3 days in Drôme provençale

Some summer days, heat is a color. The sun crashes down on the ochre stone and bounces off the intense lavender sky. The Drôme provençale is not quite Provence, but it already heralds the sinuous Baronnies and the dense Luberon. Between the Rhône and the hills, the villages are wells of inspiration for painters and poets, watched over in the distance by the muted shadow of Mont Ventoux.

108 km

4 days in the Aravis massif

It's a corner of the mountains that is the pride of all its inhabitants. Although the Aravis massif (be careful not to pronounce the final "s") is less well known than the Vanoise or Tarentaise, its family resorts are very popular, and the scenery is splendid.
