In a few words
Experience a true adult sports camp! Come spend a week dedicated to gravel riding in the heart of the Lozère region, amidst forests, lakes, and wild trails. This camp is designed for all gravel cycling enthusiasts, from beginners to experienced riders and competitors.
The goal: to ride in a spirit of kindness, progress together and explore incredible landscapes on two wheels.
The Grand Lac de Naussac, at the crossroads of Lozère, Ardèche, and Haute-Loire, offers a variety of routes: forest trails, paths through the Margeride and Cévennes mountains, rolling country roads, and breathtaking panoramas. These less-traveled paths, winding between wild nature and gentle or technical terrain, provide a unique gravel riding experience where pleasure and exploration come together.
In addition to gravel riding, complementary sessions will be offered: running, swimming, yoga, muscle strengthening, mechanics and nutrition workshops, inspiring talks… to combine performance, recovery and curiosity.
Led by passionate athletes and coaches, this trip combines progress, camaraderie, and personal growth in a unique team atmosphere. Full-board accommodation in a comfortable 3-star hotel ensures total immersion in sport, nature, and shared enjoyment.
An intense, restorative and liberating experience, designed for adults who want to ride, laugh, push their limits and feel alive!
