À la rencontre de...

From discovery hikes to winter hikes, Christophe Lebreton takes you on a journey through the Ecrins. He proposes different types of itineraries adapted to the rhythm of each one - half days, days, night hikes, raids, etc. - with always his good mood.

I've been doing this job in the Vallouise valley for about 20 years. The evolution towards the brand Esprit parc national is quite natural for me, it is a perfect collaboration between the National Park and the guides or mountain leaders. An important objective: naturalist hikes. We are there to discover the natural environment, as well as the fauna, the flora and the geology...

To be a guide is to share but it is also to facilitate the access to an environment that we do not know well and that can seem a little mysterious... It is thus necessary to transmit a maximum of knowledge and to give autonomy so that people can wander, walk by themselves on the paths... and with the good notions.
