Here is the calendar of our 2022 nature-related activities which, like every summer, will allow you to discover the landscapes and inhabitants of our beautiful Ardèche. We started our adventure at Domaine de Briange in 1997, 25 years ago! To celebrate this anniversary, we have prepared a rich programme! To be experienced without moderation!
The weekly programme is presented every Monday at 11.30 a.m. over a welcome drink.
Updated on 9 July 2022
We anticipate your disappointment, but we don’t offer music evenings or a children’s club here. Fortunately, there are so many other things to do! For example, we organise at least one activity per day, related to nature, the discovery of our territory or the local gastronomy. All our partners are from the Ardèche or are close neighbours of our beautiful department.

And every day of the summer
The descent of the Ardèche gorges
In partnership with Action Midi Sport, a kayak rental company, for a 24 km (one day) canoe trip in the Ardèche gorges. A mini-descent of 8 or 12 km is also possible. Departure from the river, at 10 min from the campsite.
Electric bike rides.
There are some lovely tours to be had around here. We don’t have bikes for hire here. You can go directly to Face sud in Vallon Pont d’Arc or Allvélo in Bourg St Andéol. They are pros, have great equipment and can advise you on some nice routes, either in Ardèche or along the Rhône river.
Discovering the territory in silence
To discover our territory, you can also rent our electric car Zoé, a great autonomy to roam in silence in the surroundings.
All you have to do is book your stay!
