Outdoor activities and hiking excursions in France and Switzerland

In France, Saint-Jean-de-Védas is highlighted as a strategic base for hikers exploring the Hérault region near Montpellier. Its proximity to trails like the Gardiole and the Mosson, combined with direct tram access and local amenities, allows hikers to avoid using cars and easily restock supplies.

In Switzerland, students from Le Locle recently participated in an outdoor school excursion to Le Communal de La Sagne in the Neuchâtel Jura mountains. Following the lifting of fire bans, the group enjoyed a traditional gathering featuring local sausages and marshmallows, utilizing the 10-hectare natural space for social activities and nature observation.
