Every season is very different
- In Spring the trees burst into a riot of electric green leaves, birdsong is omnipresent and the fields are full of wild flowers. It is also the season where there is more rain and low clouds than in others, giving rise to magnificent fluctuating mists and light effects
- In Summer, you can go for a swim in the local River Arac, as well as go for walks in the high mountains and summer pastures
- Summer activities that are available within easy driving distance: caving, bicycling and mountain biking, fresh water fishing, kayaking, canoeing, hang-gliding, visits to caves, local outdoor farmer’s markets, treks with donkeys, massages (on appointment), among others ….
- In Autumn/ Fall, the colour of the turning trees is a magnificent sight
- In Winter, every kind of weather is possible. It is not unusual to enjoy one’s midday meal outdoors. When there is snow, the snow-plough passes regularly. Icy road conditions are rare (2 weeks a year on average when snow driving equipment will be necessary). However, snow is always not so far away. Our nearest Alpine ski resort is Guzet-Neige, and cross-country ski resort at the Etang de l’Hers (Hers Lake) are both 50 minutes drive away
- Snowshoes and sledges are available on request
