In addition to rock-climbing and high rope walking, the boys, aged between 12 and 15, together with accompanying teachers, embarked on a two-day Ardèche River expedition with an overnight stay in a bivouac.  Another day was spent exploring underground rock formations in the famous, pre-historic Orgnac Caves, one of the region’s most visited attractions.

Back at the campsite, a private tented village, pupils enjoyed sports and team-building activities.  These included volleyball, swimming, archery and an inter-camp ‘Olympics’ event.
