Astronomy and the Star Trail

Here, the nights are full of charm and leave you starry-eyed. Whether with family or friends, take the time to stroll along the Sentier des étoiles, a trail that invites you to look up and discover the sky in a whole new way. Events led by astronomy enthusiasts are regularly organised in Les Bauges: a chance to learn how to identify the constellations and observe the stars through telescopes. An activity best enjoyed with a blanket and a flask of local herbal tea!

Summer biathlon in La Féclaz: get your adrenaline fix

You don’t need snow to experience the thrill of an Olympic event! In La Féclaz, the biathlon stadium is transformed in summer into a spectacular training ground for fans of shooting and endurance sports. Whether on roller skis or on foot, you’ll alternate between physical exertion and marksmanship in an exceptional natural setting. Led by professionals, these sessions are suitable for all ability levels. It’s a fun and intense way to get a behind-the-scenes look at this demanding discipline. Ready to take aim?

Air sports and thrills the thrill of the real thing

Fancy getting up high? Try paragliding from Le Revard: the view of the lakes and mountain peaks is breathtaking. For adrenaline junkies, why not try a bungee jump or a big air jump? Supervised by professionals, these experiences get your heart racing and lift your spirits. All this takes place in a unique natural setting, nestled between rolling mountains and vertiginous cliffs.

Mountain sports and the outdoors

The adventure begins in the Bauges, an unspoilt mountain range offering countless possibilities. Rock climbing in Curienne, via ferrata at La Roche du Guet, canyoning in the Pont du Diable gorges or water hiking along the banks of the Chéran: the challenges are varied and always exhilarating. The more adventurous will venture deep into the earth’s depths through caving, whilst those seeking peace and quiet will settle by a lake or river, fishing rod in hand. A blend of unspoilt nature and accessible thrills.

Unusual activities & vehicles

On forest tracks or specially laid-out trails, try out some unusual modes of transport: all-terrain Segways, electricscooters or dirt scooters for the more adventurous. In the heart of the Féclaz plateau, have a go at mountainboarding or electric fat biking: guaranteed fun for young and old alike. Chambéry Montagnes offers a wide range of fun and accessible activities, perfect for exploring the mountains in a different way. Still not sure? Just give it a go and you’ll be hooked.

With its lakes, rivers and leisure centres, the water offers a wealth of experiences to enjoy in Chambéry Montagnes. Whether it’s swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, boat trips, canyoning or relaxing with the family, there’s something for everyone along the water’s edge.
