Agenda

Astro hikes

Whether you're an avid photographer wanting to learn how to better capture the sky, or just a night-watching enthusiast, you'll learn more about constellations, the history of the Universe and the stars while having a great time.

Florian, a professional photographer, and Bertille and Mathieu, mountain guides, will be your memory-makers. All three are mediators for the UNESCO Chablais Geopark, so you'll be able to discover a few secrets about the history of our landscapes between lake and mountain.
You'll set off from the Bise site, a timeless natural area dominated by the majestic walls of the Cornettes de Bise. It's home to an alpine hamlet where traditional chalets welcome people and their herds all summer long.

For this outing, you don't need to be a great sportsman, but regular walking/hiking is recommended, as the outings will involve around 2h30 of walking (including 1h30 uphill) and 250/300 meters of positive ascent.
The outings take place in small groups of six people, to give you the best possible experience and to ensure that your guides are always available.
For safety reasons, we are obliged to raise the minimum age of participants to 16.
