100% Art & Nature

An ideal week to discover the medicinal and edible plants of our mountains! And to make sure you don't miss out on all this nature, we'll be alternating picking hikes in the Aravis mountains, where you'll learn to recognise, identify and harvest the main plants, with practical workshops on how to transform your harvest!

An introduction to the basics of botany, a cookery workshop, balms, herbal teas, syrups and other preparations await you!

One discovery a day: nature, pottery, watercolours, heritage thanks to the Source, wild plants, well-being, etc.
A rich and varied holiday, combined with walks through forests and mountain pastures.
