Let yourself be guided along the way

Conference-hike: nature and me

During this stay you'll be able to travel in total simplicity through the magnificent landscapes of the Queyras, to listen and share along the way.

Inspired by nature since childhood, I'll guide you through my experiences, my knowledge of people, mountains and the Queyras Regional Park. A simple and unforgettable experience.

Nature is a symbol! It's a wonderful vacation destination, where you can recharge your batteries, breathe in the fresh air and be inspired... But where does this deep sense of well-being come from when you walk in nature? How do you connect with this soothing, beneficial atmosphere? And yet nature can also be harsh, intense, devastating... If you love hiking, and want to understand things in depth, feel nature and discover the language of the unconscious, you're welcome 🙂

DAY 1: Welcome

Thomas will meet you at 6.30pm on Thursday evening at the Fruitière lodge, before dinner at 7pm. You're warmly invited to settle in from 4pm, and enjoy the convivial space or visit the hamlet of Vilargaudin.

DAY 2: Cabane de Fontouse, a corner of paradise.

HUMAN ACTIVITY AT THE HEART OF NATURE
A first immersion in nature for this day with the following theme: how can we understand the evolution of human life by observing the landscape, the morphology of nature...? The characteristic here in France of a regional nature park is to include human activity within nature, to strike a balance between preservation of the environment and the economy, society, culture, etc... human activity in fact :)
So it's a magnificent contemporary symbol of the coexistence between man and nature, which has always existed and can easily be discovered in the Queyras mountains.
Let yourself be led through history, by the elements and the terrain, to discover the secrets of the complicity between man and his environment...

Max. ascent: + 500 m, - 500 m Walking time/conference: 5h30

DAY 3: Le Queyron, a sublime viewpoint.

MY NATURE: VALUES, THOUGHTS, EMOTIONS AND ACTIONS...
Walking allows contemplation, thoughts come, and with them smells and memories... It reminds us of the garden of our childhood, holidays with friends, the escapades of our youth, army training ;) and what else... Nature gives us emotions: it is generous, wild, beneficial or disturbing, it is variable and sometimes unpredictable...
You'll take advantage of this day to understand some of the mechanisms of our intelligence: the links between emotions, feelings and our actions and thoughts; how we orchestrate this natural wealth within us :)
Nature is alive, in our image, and it's a gift to be able to explore it to recharge our batteries, relax, reflect, share, act... simply live :)

Max ascent: + 500 m, - 500 m Walking time/conference: 5h30

DAY 4: Les Moulins, water powering prosperity.

LET IT FLOW, NATURALLY
This final day will give you the opportunity to share your experience of connecting with nature, and/or simply enjoy being here, in the Queyras Natural Park... a moment to relax and feel good :) You'll discover an old mill in Arvieux, on the banks of the Izoard torrent, named after the magnificent pass from which it rises. Then we'll head back up to the gîte to disperse around 2pm.

Maximum ascent: +/- 250 m, Walking time: 3h30
