School Trips Activities & Excursions - French Alps

Recommended Outdoor Activities

Lake Water Sports
The clear Alpine lakes and rivers of Serre Chevalier present school groups with some fantastic opportunities to get into the water and try some new sports and healthy outdoor activities.

Mountain Activities
Within the foot hills and higher up the fertile slopes of The Alps students will find a whole host of adventurous activities and out of season sports to challenge their abilities and expand their skills and strengths.

Via Ferrata
This is a mountain route that is already equipped with fixed cables, stemples, ladders and bridges. Students can follow the well used routes without needing to use their own ropes or belays and without any other associated risks.

Rock Climbing
There are hundreds of routes for all kinds of abilities and you can rest assured that HTS only use the best climbing companies that provide only the most stringently tested safety equipment.

Mountain Trekking
This is an ideal way to sample the fresh air and countryside amidst the evergreen forests and mountain paths. Students of geography and active groups will both benefit from this activity.

Summer Sledging
This activity is just the same as the winter version but takes place on the green hillsides rather than on snow. Purpose built toboggan runs provide a fun, fast and safe way to get down the hill without walking!

Adventure Playgrounds
Swing through the pine trees, fly down zip lines or endure the monkey swings, whatever you feel you can do, this is your chance to try. These parks are completely secure with carefully checked harnesses and safety equipment.

Further Activities and Sports
If you have the time after exploring the valleys, mountains and water features of the Alps then there is always the opportunity to indulge in some more tried and tested pursuits such as tennis, mini-golf, ice skating and archery.
