One of our goals is to make the right decisions to protect natural sites and limit our impact on ecosystems and the environment.
100% local: thanks to our local presence in Bugey, close to our practice sites, we reduce our travel to a minimum. We use sustainable and environmentally friendly equipment, manufactured in France or Europe. We work with partners located in the areas we visit: restaurants, bars, and accommodations.nWe will suggest taking public transportation to the meeting points (when possible!) or carpooling for outdoor outings.
Protecting the planet: it's natural!
Photography and imagery are part of our DNA. Take advantage of our video and photo equipment to take your adventure memories home with you!
After each outing, we'll send you photos and videos of the outing, free of charge and with a smile!
