Adventure awaits on the Giens Peninsula

Our aim is to offer you a deep dive into the local culture, allowing you to get to know and discover the island's landscapes and ecosystems. Our nature outings are geared towards other people and give a new purpose to your stay.

 

Our responsibility is therefore based on a number of key principles : having a positive impact on the local population, helping visitors to discover them, while making a minimal impact on the environment.

Kayak trip at sunrise

Every Thursday morning, join Lou and Jennifer, your activity leader, for a kayaking adventure. This morning excursion invites you to paddle to the surrounding coves to admire the first glimmers of daylight and enjoy a refreshing swim. The outing lasts around two hours and is free of charge. 

 


Eco - ride from Salines to Les Pesquiers

For those who want to combine environmental action and discovery, a friendly eco-ride from Salines to Les Pesquiers is on offer. On this route steeped in history, you'll cycle straight out to take part in a clean-up operation aimed at preserving the natural beauty of the area.

 


Day trip to Porquerolles

Every Tuesday, we organise an exceptional day out to Porquerolles, guided by Jennifer. 

 

When you arrive on the island, enjoy a bowl of fresh seasonal fruit before cycling to one of Porquerolles' most beautiful beaches for a yoga class and a refreshing dip. 

 

You then have free time to wander around the town centre, lunch at l'Escale restaurant and stroll along the shady paths to discover the island's monuments and treasures.

 

A rich programme for a day full of memories.

Coastal walks

For hiking enthusiasts, two routes are on offer starting from Salines, both supervised by our guides.

 

  • L’Esterel : Equipped with a pair of binoculars, set off on foot along the coastal path to admire the view of the coastline, including L'Ayguade and La Londe-les-Maures. Don't forget your picnic for a break surrounded by these exceptional landscapes.

 

  • La Madrague : A bike ride along the coastal path where you can admire the beauty of the coves and a view of Porquerolles. Once again, a picnic break offers a chance to enjoy the surroundings and observe nature through a pair of binoculars.

Meet your guide, Jennifer

Our activity manager, Jennifer, plays a key role in organizing and leading the nature outings. Passionate about the region and deeply knowledgeable about the area, she takes you off the beaten path to help you discover the Giens Peninsula from a new perspective.
