An international environment

Les Elfes International welcomes children aged 6 to 17 and coming from more than 70 different countries, promoting an international atmosphere that encourages joy and intercultural exchange. The camps, designed for the Discoveries (6-10 years), Explorers (11-14) and Pioneers (15-17) groups, last from 2 to 4 weeks, from June to August, and are designed to nurture personal growth and interpersonal skills.

Activities & language lessons

During their stay, campers will get to experience more than 40 outdoor activities, ranging from rock climbing, ropes courses, mountain biking, paragliding, horse riding and banana boat. The programmes are designed to be challenging and adrenaline-pumping, introducing new activities each year to ensure that returning campers experience the same thrill as the first time.

In addition to sports activities, Les Elfes collaborates with a local language school offering courses in French, German, Spanish, Mandarin and English.

Staff and safety

What sets Les Elfes apart is its experienced staff: more than half work all year round to ensure a thorough knowledge of risk assessment and activities, guaranteeing first-class safety and supervision. The staff guide the children in their first period away from home, empowering them to become independent individuals.
