Reisecamp für Familien: Die Tour der Mont Blanc

FAMILY TRIPS
Summer Camp Switzerland - Camp d'été et vacances en Suisse

Das Camp auf einen Blick:

The Tour du Mont Blanc is a breathtaking, multi-day mythical hike that circumnavigates the Mont Blanc massif in the Alps.
Kid-friendly, meaning short days and less steep climbs, the trek offers a chance to immerse yourself in the area’s rich natural heritage.
We will walk about 3 hours every day, sleep in tents and mountain huts, build camps, participate in afternoon activities, and learn unique facts about geology, biology, and astronomy.

Ein Cocktail von Aktivitäten für alle Geschmäcker

  • Hiking Mornings : Conquer the emblematic trails, supervised by our experienced guides.
    Every day offers a new discovery, from sunrise over snow-capped peaks to crossing flower-filled valleys.
  • Multisport Evenings : After a day in the mountains, the evenings are devoted to a variety of sports activities!
  • Afternoons are reserved for team games: imagine raft-building competitions, where cooperation and ingenuity will be your best allies as you navigate the tranquil waters of a mountain lake.
    The evenings are enlivened by nightly orientation challenges, building trust and collaboration under a starry sky.

Altersgruppen & Sprachen

We offer this camp for families with children from 12* – 18 years old (itinerary and activities adapted to needs)

We believe in bringing together an international community, which is why the languages spoken at the camp are French and English, which is what we have seen from our past experience and the huge benefit of mixing Francophones and Anglophones and learning from both groups.

*Under 12 years old? At our discretion and if the participants are particularly fit and motivated, we allow age exceptions, contact us for more information.

But in our experience, this is the case for 95% of young people between 9 and 16 years old!
In the months leading up to your trip, we recommend that you participate in physical activity at least once a week if you are not already doing so.

Was ist, wenn ich sonst niemanden kenne?

Most of our students come to Young Explorers Club without knowing anyone before their trip.
You’ll start making friends as soon as you arrive at the airport (and our instructors will be there to help).
Once the journey is over, you won’t want to leave your new community!
Most of our students remain friends long after their summer is over.
We firmly believe that life is about having new experiences and making the most of every moment.
However, we also recognize that the most meaningful experiences often require stepping out of our comfort zones and venturing away from familiar surroundings.
When we do this, we find ourselves in unfamiliar and challenging environments, which forces us to fully engage with our surroundings and truly live in the moment.
These new places and situations often bring new perspectives and can inspire us to continue seeking out new experiences that push us to grow and broaden our horizons.

Wie sind die anderen Studenten?

The teenagers who come to the Young Explorers Club are kind, welcoming, eager to learn and come from all over Switzerland, France, USA and elsewhere.
Our groups are full of positive young adults who will work well with each other.
Young Explorers Club places a strong emphasis on group dynamics and creating a supportive social environment, and our students reflect this.
