Here is the calendar of our 2026 nature-related activities which, like every summer, will allow you to discover the landscapes and inhabitants of our beautiful Ardèche. The weekly programme is presented every Monday at 11.30am over a welcome drink.
Updated on 08 April 2026.
We anticipate your disappointment, but we don’t offer music evenings or a children’s club here. Fortunately, there are so many other things to do! For example, we organise at least one activity per day, related to nature, the discovery of our territory or the local gastronomy. All our partners are from the Ardèche or are close neighbours of our beautiful department.
Calendar of our 2026 nature-related activities
Whether you are in a tent or in one of our accommodation, all these activities are free, sometimes with registration. The calendar can still be enriched, so do not hesitate to come back and consult it.

Nature walks at night
- Thursdays – from 9 or 16 July
With Benjamin, a mid-mountain guide from here. 360° panorama at the top of the Dent de Rez (720 m), or hike to the sandy mountain, on the banks of the Ardèche river, with a ford crossing. Breathtaking!
Heritage walk
- Tuesday mornings, from 9.30am to 12.30pm – from 14 July.
With Michel, president of the Saint-Remèze heritage association, who will share with you his love and knowledge of our local heritage: mills, dolmens, vernacular heritage…
Astronomy from 4.30pm until… late at night!
- Saturdays 11 and 18 July, 8 and 15 August.
With Ophicius club. In the afternoon, the olders will be able to observe the Sun while the younger ones make and project their homemade rockets. Then, once night has fallen, observation of the stars after a presentation on the solar system. And above all, a meeting with enthusiasts, while enjoying a clear sky, ideal for stargazing (more abour stargazing here).
Briange workshops
- At 10.30am several times a week in July and August
The Briange team will be leading DIY workshops on lavender, photophore, mobile… for all the family to enjoy.
A fully flexible workshop space!
Apart from the mornings we organise, you have free access to the workshop area. Every morning from 10am to midday, we provide you with small equipment: scissors, paper, glue, etc.
If you’d like to share one of your talents, you can offer to lead a workshop by writing the theme and date directly on the slate, ideally one or 2 days beforehand. The only stipulation is that you must be in the spirit of Briange, by proposing a creation based on recycled materials or what nature has to offer.
Wellness under the oaks
To experience nature and rejuvenation to the full, very simply.
- Sophrology with Françoise – Wednesday mornings at 9.30am, from 8 July
Night swim at the pool
- Every wednesday night until 10.30pm for the pleasure of swimming at night.
For gourmets
In addition to our 2026 nature-related activities, we’ll also be serving delicious local seasonal cuisine.
- Every Wednesday from 6 to 8pm, small market to discover the local produce of our plateau with:
- Wine tasting and sale by Séverine, winemaker from Domaine de Mermès,
- Soaps made by Camille from La savonnerie des champs libres,
- Honey produced by Eric
- Other local products sold by Marie-Claire from the boutique Les secrets de mon pays.
- Also on Friday evenings: the Briange meal. A unique meal shared at the same table for a convivial moment with travellers from France and Europe. An institution for 26 years!
- Sunday and Monday evenings: pizzas cooked by Armel, using local Ardèche produce.
And every day of the summer
The descent of the Ardèche gorges
In partnership with Action Midi Sport, a kayak rental company, for a 24 km (one day) canoe trip in the Ardèche gorges. A mini-descent of 8 or 12 km is also possible. Departure from the river, at 10 min from the campsite.
Electric bike rides.
There are some lovely tours to be had around here. We don’t have bikes for hire on site, but you can contact Benjamin from Sport Nature Ardèche directly. They have great equipment and can advise you on some nice routes, either in Ardèche or along the Rhône river.
Discovering the territory in silence
To discover our territory, you can also rent our electric car, a great autonomy to roam in silence in the surroundings.
All you have to do is book your stay!
