Hi everyone. Who's up for hiking the Ubaye loop via the GR 56 and variants, staying in mountain huts in late August/early September? Looking forward to hearing from you! Zoé

Hello! With the summer sun, what could be better than a holiday combining naturism, cool sports activities, culture, music, heritage, hiking, and an apéro 😉 I’m on holiday from August 23rd to September 13th and I’m looking for naturists—or non-naturists—to join me in naturist resorts to experience daily nudity, between relaxation, swimming, activities, and discoveries. Duration, locations, visits, and activities… all to be decided together to co-create this holiday project. The mindset is clear: energy, culture, sharing, respect, and curiosity about the world. Chill vibes.

The word *naturism* is to be taken in its original sense. This is a FRIENDLY endeavor: any notions of exhibitionism, voyeurism, swinging, or disrespect (for dunes, people) are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. Link to the French Naturist Federation: https://ffn-naturisme.com/ We can discuss this via messaging and/or over a coffee/ice cream in Paris, Marne-la-Vallée, or Meaux. Naturally, Marc, 🙂 (already 54 years old! *sigh*. From Seine-et-Marne)

I'm heading out with friends for a week in the Queyras to hike in this beautiful region, staying at accommodation in Molines-en-Queyras near Saint-Véran, from Wednesday the 19th to Wednesday the 26th of August.

It's accommodation where we can really relax, have breakfast, prepare picnics, and go on day hikes. Some of the Queyras' most famous hikes are less than an hour's drive away. In the evenings, we'll either eat out or cook at the apartment! Right now, there are 8 of us, and since there are 11 beds, 3 more people can still join the group. If you have any questions, don't hesitate! Approximate budget if we're 10 people: 175 € for accommodation + 150 € for restaurants + 55 € for miscellaneous (including shuttles or paid parking) – so a week of hiking at a reasonable price! Indicative hiking program:

After the hikes and depending on the time, we can explore the region a bit... Wednesday 2 PM: Cascade de l'Oule from Le Laus – 7.9 km and 710 m elevation gain Thursday: Sommet Bucher and Col des Prés Fromage – 11.9 to 15.5 km and 700 to 830 m elevation gain, depending on how we're feeling and the weather Friday: Tour de la Tête des Toillies – 14.5 km and 1,015 m elevation gain Saturday: Col Agnel and Lacs d'Asti, Foreant, and Égorgeou – 17.1 km and 980 m elevation gain Sunday: Lacs du Malrif – 12 km and 960 m elevation gain Monday: Col de Neal and Col du Lauzon – 16 km and 950 m elevation gain Tuesday: Lac de Lestio – 17.7 km and 870 m elevation gain

Wednesday: Lac de Roue – 4.5 km and 175 m elevation gain for the return trip

I'm looking for an independent companion to share a trip to Brittany around 26/08/2026 for three weeks. Bike touring, cultural visits, birdwatching, etc., and of course, apéros. I love islands and the sea. I'm 70, a retired mountain and canyoning educator and guide. Everyone keeps their own vehicle, but we share meals, visits, etc. My van—I have a Traffic Font Vendôme van. Thanks

Hi there,

Here comes the time for well-deserved holidays. Breathing in the fresh air, swimming, hiking... and enjoying an apéro 😎

I’m looking for travel buddies to co-create a getaway around Lake Annecy.

The idea is to explore with day hikes (no pressure, no performance vibes) and discover stunning views, local history... Try canoeing, mountain biking; check out street art performances, music festivals, art exhibitions—anything that makes for a good time.

I’m also open to other suggestions: the Pyrenees, Crete, Sardinia, Lanzarote, or anywhere else here or there 🙂

Holidays in a zen, laid-back spirit—no stress, no grumpiness, no ambiguity.

Energy. Culture. Sharing. Respect. Curiosity to discover the world. Chill vibes.

If you’ve got ideas for trips mixing cultural walks, heritage, music, arts, hiking, etc. (in France or abroad), hit me up to chat. Dates, locations, activities... we’ll figure it out together.

We can discuss via messaging and/or over coffee/ice cream in Paris, Marne-la-Vallée, or Meaux.

Marc,

Hi there and happy New Year! I’d love to explore Greece or Austria in August 2026 for ten days. If anyone’s interested, feel free to get in touch. Thanks

Hello, I’m a 76-year-old "senior" who’s still active and full of energy. I ski, swim, hike, and keep traveling a lot, including to the other side of the world. My most recent trip: The Philippines (winter 2026). I’d love to gather a small group of friendly seniors to first plan some short trips in France together. If everything goes well, we could venture farther and for longer. What matters to me in a foreign country: a change of scenery, trying to understand the locals and their way of life, architectural heritage (cities in particular), and of course the beauty of natural sites. I’m not really into "road trips." I live in Paris and am available the second half of August and the first week of September (2026). Nothing’s set yet for 2027. Hope to meet you soon! Granviajera.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to share a little 10–15-day bike trip in August (dates are flexible, but before the last week of the holidays). I’ve already done several bike trips (Serbia, Romania, the Pyrenees, Massif Central, Creuse, etc.) and have all the gear I need. The goal is mainly the journey itself—discovering beautiful landscapes (I take a lot of photos with a proper camera 😊) and getting a break from civilization. Major roads? Not my thing! I’d rather head to the mountains, maybe tackle a few cols, but it’s not about performance. If you’re up for sharing a trip, maybe even abroad, feel free to get in touch!

Have a great day, everyone!

Hello everyone!

I’m heading off to explore the Lot region in a week. Starting in Figeac, then making my way up to the northern part of the department before heading back down toward Cahors, and finally setting off toward Villefranche-de-Rouergue...

I’ll be there for a good week, sleeping on the mattress in the back of my van. My priority is quiet, natural, and peaceful spots. I’m self-sufficient with a camping stove, food and drinks, and a backpack for hiking and visiting small villages and nature trails...

If any of you are available and up for sharing a moment together—a meal, a beer, a hike, a visit, etc.—and you’re from the area or want to show me a stunning spot in the Lot that I might not know about, I’m in!

For those who don’t know me, I’m a 41-year-old guy, pretty sporty and passionate about nature and adventure!

Don’t hesitate to reach out privately! Looking forward to great encounters... 🚐🥾

Hi there, I’m traveling solo to Corsica on Tuesday, June 9, leaving from Toulon and arriving in Propriano the next day (June 10). I’m offering to share my crossing—of course, you’d need to book your own ferry ticket as a foot passenger—but I can give you a ride and share my cabin (twin beds). We can discuss the price. 😊

After that, I’m heading to Porto-Vecchio, so I can drop you off there if you’d like.

I’ve booked a spot at a campsite where I rented a hard-sided cabin from June 10 to 18. If you’re interested, we could even share the week together.

Have a great day.

Hi there! I’m a lively, friendly Toulousaine with a great sense of humor who loves hiking—on foot and by bike. Along with another person from this site, we’re heading to CORSICA for a week to hike the coastal trails around the Cap Corse,

with the cherry on top: two days in the Agriates desert!

We’d love to share this adventure with two more hikers (any gender), same vibe, aged 40–60, good humor a must...

The plan is to meet in Bastia on May 9th before noon, then set off with a rental car (for the week, 140 € to split!) to explore the CAP CORSE. We’ll make two camping stops (east and north), so bring your own small tent if possible, to tackle the coastal trails. Then a break in St-Florent, followed by two days in the Agriates (with 4–6-hour hikes daily).

We’ll take the overnight ferry from Toulon and return by boat from Bastia too (40 € round trip).

If you’re interested, please message me quickly—it’s still possible until April 30th! Looking forward to chatting! Anie...

Hi,

I’m looking for people to join for a winter sports trip (5/7 nights) in the French Alps from Belgium/Luxembourg.

Departure this Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, or early next week.

The idea is to share accommodation costs and travel expenses.

Feel free to get in touch.

I'm looking for hikers to walk the Saint-Guilhem Way in spring 2026 from May 17th to 30th and form a small group of 4 to 5 people.

Full route of the Saint-Guilhem Way starting from Aumont-Aubrac to Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert, passing through the Tarn and Jonte gorges (so taking the variant via Le Rozier).

Daily stages of 17 to 28 km depending on difficulty, places to visit, and accommodations. Around 260 km over 12 days of hiking and about 6 to 7 hours of walking per day.

Duration: 14 days (12 days of hiking + 1 arrival day / 1 departure day). No performance goals—just taking the time to see, discover, and enjoy the scenery.

I'm a 62-year-old man from the Alsace region. Contact me if interested! Rémy

Hello,

I’d like to do the 550 km Grand Tour of Paris around June 21st—it’s the GR1 trail. I plan to return to Paris each day so I don’t have to carry a heavy pack, and I want to take my time exploring the city as well. I’m looking for a travel companion who’s in good physical shape and loves hiking. I’m 68, a semi-retired teacher (I still enjoy teaching), an international traveler who’s already done a round-the-world trip and wants to do more… Looking forward to getting to know you! Jean Marie

After completing the Camino de Santiago in 2025, I’m planning another "pilgrimage" that will take me from Paris to Mont Saint-Michel through Normandy. Departing from Paris on May 12th, arriving at Mont Saint-Michel on June 5th, with daily stages of 20 to 25 km. I’d love to team up with anyone who might be considering this route—let’s walk together! I’ve had great success with this before on the Camino, where I met a fellow walker just a few weeks prior to setting off!

I’m a 67-year-old retiree with experience in long-distance hiking. The pace is moderate and manageable for any regular hiker.

Feel free to ask any questions if you’re interested—I’m happy to share more details.

Hi everyone! 😊 From June 30 to July 8, my friend and I are heading out for a 9-day trek around the Écrins National Park (nights in mountain huts/gîtes). We’re looking for at least 4 motivated people to join the adventure! 👍 Good physical condition is a must: several days of hiking, elevation gain, and self-sufficiency on the agenda. Friendly vibes, nature, and adventure guaranteed! 🌲🐻 📧 More details via private message (route, organization, gear, etc.).

hi everyone, I’m planning to go skiing at Les Saisies from December 20 to 27 (I checked, it’s snowy in December and the prices are pretty reasonable). If there are 2 or 3 of us, we can split the rental costs (I’ve been looking at studio/apartment rentals on Le Bon Coin since yesterday, they’re around 75 € per day, so about 580 € for the week, which we can split depending on how many of us there are). For transport, we can carpool if possible, otherwise everyone can get there however they prefer. Personally, the train works for me—I checked, it’s a TGV from Paris to Albertville, then a frequent bus to the resort. If you’re interested, send me a PM and let’s plan to meet up in Paris as soon as possible to choose, book, and pay for the accommodation together. Since the dates are coming up soon, I’d like to finalize the booking ASAP!

Looking forward to skiing together! Habib

I'm looking for a hiking partner for a full Pyrenees traverse in bivouac mode in summer 2026. Starting from Banyuls, I'm planning a mix of GR10, GR 11, HRP, and Trans Pyr' to reach Hendaye, taking into account resupply options. Daily stages of 6 to 8 hours or more, but enjoying the scenery in good spirits and sharing the experience. I'm a solid hiker—I don’t dawdle, but I don’t run either. We should plan 2 or 3 multi-day hikes beforehand to get to know each other and see if we click.

Living in Alsace and loving the sun—or at least escaping the Alsatian winter cold—I’m looking for 1 or 2 people who’d like to share a rental somewhere in the south of France, for about a month around mid-January/February to mid-March 2026. Everything’s up for discussion, of course.

The idea is to enjoy the mild weather down south and go hiking, sightseeing, etc.

I’m a 62-year-old man.

Looking forward to hearing from you! Rémy

Looking for a hiking buddy to do the Tour des Fizz in 4 days from August 26-27 to 30, 2025

Hi everyone,

After a last-minute cancellation, I’m now looking for someone to join me on a bivouac trip from the 18th to the 24th (the dates are slightly flexible).

I’m planning to head to the Pyrenees, which I know well, but if anyone’s interested in another destination (Jura, Alps, etc.), I’m open to suggestions. Either way, I’m keen to explore new landscapes.

I’m used to bivouacking, have all the necessary gear, and I’m a pretty contemplative guy. I need the peace of the mountains and a bit of simplicity to recharge before facing the rest of the year in society.

That said, I’m definitely up for sharing a good bottle of wine and some tasty food after a great day of hiking!

If you’re tempted, feel free to get in touch.

Have a great day, everyone

Hi, I’m looking for a woman to join me on a hike along a section of the GR34 in Brittany this October—easy to moderate level.

Hi there, I’m available to travel from now until autumn 2026. Everything’s in my profile—feel free to check it out: https://voyageforum.com/membres/petitflocon3/ See you soon, Philippe

Hello, I’d like to hike the Stevenson Trail between September 5th and 15th, 2025. Starting from Le Puy-en-Velay. I’m looking for a woman (I’m 60) to join me since I don’t want to walk alone. Feel free to get in touch! Nathalie (Bouches-du-Rhône, France)

Hi there, I’ve never gone hiking but I’d love to try this activity with other people (experienced or not). With or without bivouac/camping.

Share your experiences and tips on this!

See you soon ;)

Hi everyone!

A little tired of solo trips, I’d love to find one or more lovely companions to spend a few days with (or even longer if we really click). I’m not rolling in money, and I’m not really looking to "discover new cultures" (aren’t people the same yet different everywhere?), but rather to enjoy the great outdoors, peace and quiet, swimming, and walking—very simple things. France works just fine for me, unless you’ve already booked a hotel or a flight? Let’s talk about it. Either way, the motto is to escape the city and crowds as much as possible.

A bit about me: I’m a 34-year-old woman. Very much a loner but also very sociable. I’ll need moments alone to read or daydream so I can reconnect with you all over a good meal or a hike. I love beauty and authenticity.

Shall we get to know each other?

I have a lot of free time, but I’d like to leave in July-August! :)

70-year-old man I’ve planned to leave from Nevers between May 20th and 23rd. If anyone wants to join me for a chill trip—max 60 km per day on a hybrid bike, camping along the way—all the way to Saint-Brevin or just part of the route.

Hello/good evening, I’m looking for someone available this summer to join me on my bike tour around France (and beyond). Partial or full route welcome...

Hi there, I’m looking for travel companions around my age (between 18 and 25) to go hiking in the Alps at the end of July 2025. I’d like to go for 3 to 5 days. It’s my first time doing a multi-day hike, so even though I’m sporty and motivated, I’d prefer something not too tough. If you have any hiking suggestions or want to join me, I’m in! !

Hi there, I’m suggesting we team up to visit these TWO must-see spots in the Pyrenees—perfect for those who haven’t been yet or want to go back. We can decide on the meet-up location and dates together. Also happy to hear your ideas! See you soon
