SUMMARY:FRENCH ALPS - Samoens July 4-18 2026 (2 weeks)

Peppered all over the valley are over twenty waterfalls\, none more impressive than at the Le Cirque-du-Fer-à-Cheval where some enormous waterfalls fall over 500 mtrs. \nThose looking for action and adventure will find a huge number of activities available\, and of course\, the village just so happens to offer convenient high-speed links into the Grand Massif. \nHiking \nThe valley offers hundreds of kilometers of hiking trails\, from easy family-friendly walks to mountain peaks and multi-day hikes\, from beautiful rivers and waterwalls to exhilarating ridges\, and everything in between. \nClimbing \nThere are several excellent climbing spots around Samoëns and the Haut-Giffre valley\, from easy low-grade climbs to high grade multi-pitch routes. \nMountain Biking \nIn Samoëns\, enjoy family friendly river side trails\, marked cross country and e-bike routes\, steep technical lift-served singletrack\, bikeparks\, and some shuttle services. \nRoad Cycling \nWhether you wish to test yourself on the 1000m climb to the Col de Joux Plane\, or cruise up the Cirque du Fer a Cheval for lunch\, there’s something for everyone. \nCost (depending on exchange rates) is about £180 per week\, and a £100 deposit is required per person (not per week – per person).
