With its two courses ('Le Château' 6,616 m & 'Le Riou' 6,005 m), the club proposes a unique site in France. Majestically spreading around the Resort, both lines were drawn up by Dave Thomas, the world famous architect (De Verc Belfry). Here, water is omnipresent with sumptuous waterfalls and lakes.

2) La Grave with its unique unpisted high mountain domain and its more than 7000 feet of backcountry terrain, is considered one of the freeride capitals of the world.
3) Valberg is one of the greatest sunny stations of the Alps of the south, with its 60 alpine ski pistes, its 26 ski lifts and nearly 30 km of basic ski pistes!! As of the snow melt, Valberg is transformed into a vast ground of discovered nature. In the medium of larches and green meadows, fauna and flora will not have any more secrecies for you… And you will be able to find, in all serenity, the taste of the wild blackberry and wild strawberries!
