Overview of Climbing and Yoga Holiday at La Source

Join us in the stunning Heritage village, Samoens nestled in the French Alps for a week of yoga, community, delicious organic vegetarian food, hiking, white water rafting, swimming and fun!

On the Yoga Adventure you start the day with an invigorating Hatha Vinyassa Class by the lake, return to the Chalet for a communal breakfast in the garden and then spend the rest of your day doing whatever you like! It may be lounging around the pool, or parapenting, rock climbing or white water rafting!

Our guests often come solo, or with families and partners and we all stay in a large 4* chalet with 3 apartments and an adjoining Barn. In the garden there is a swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna. Everything you might need is walking distance from the chalet. 5 dinners and all your breakfasts are included.
