France offers the perfect conditions for many outdoor sports. It is difficult to say whether winter sports or summer sports are more popular in the country. In France, you can practice adrenaline-inducing sports such as bungee jumping in the Verdon Regional Natural Park, with unique views of the gorge, and other fun outdoor activities like paragliding in Annecy to admire the picturesque lake from above, canoeing in Ardeche where you pass under the natural stone arch that leaves most visitors in awe, or canyoning in Corsica with his wild landscapes in the Bavella Massif, very picturesque with its rocky spikes of red granite, in the heart of the island’s mountains. In winter, the charming ski resorts including Avoriaz, Chamonix, Serre Chevalier, Les Deux Alpes, Tignes, Val d’Isère, La Plagne and many others are very popular amongst visitors and locals alike.
