Adventure & Sport camp - French

Kursbeschreibung

Our friLingue Adventure & Sport Camp in the beautiful Saint-Bernard Valley, in the canton of Valais, offers an active, fun-filled, and unforgettable summer experience in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Surrounded by dramatic mountain scenery, lush green valleys, and fresh alpine air, this camp is ideal for adventurous children and teenagers aged 12–17 who want to enjoy outdoor challenges and exciting sports in an international environment.

Unlike some of our other programmes, this camp does not include morning language classes — instead, all activities are conducted in English, creating a vibrant and immersive multicultural setting where participants naturally practise their English skills through adventure and teamwork.

Each morning brings a new adventure, guided by experienced instructors. Campers can expect a wide variety of outdoor and sporting activities designed to build confidence, physical skills, and resilience. Highlights include climbing, river rafting and water sports, football and team sports, tennis, mountain biking, and survival skills & team challenges that encourage cooperation, leadership, and problem-solving.

After the action-packed mornings, the afternoon and evening programme offers a well-balanced mix of creative workshops, leisure activities, sports, and social events. Whether it’s craft and art sessions, team challenges, or relaxing games, every day brings fun and friendship alongside personal growth

The camp takes place in a comfortable youth-friendly accommodation, offering shared rooms, spacious common areas, and a welcoming atmosphere that encourages social interaction. Participants enjoy homemade full board, ensuring balanced and nutritious meals throughout their stay.
