Sports and Nature

Thanks to its geographical position between the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, the natural landscape of France is more varied than you’ll find anywhere in Europe. From the Pyrenees to the Alps, from Mount Ventoux to the Loire Valley, from the the Canal du Midi to the Canal de Bretagne, from garden walks to country strolls, you’ll find numerous opportunities for sporting and other outdoor activities: biking, hiking, skiing, tennis, golf, barging, sailing, waterskiing, horseback riding and more, with many natural discoveries along the way.
