Occitan experiences

Stories of trekking, ski touring and climbing

The project

The Occitan Experiences are a proposal dedicated to mountain lovers who wish to consciously and with respect for the places they cross. The project plans to narrate the territory of the Maira Valley – one of the most evocative and uncontaminated corners of the Alps – through the experiences of ordinary people who have chosen to cross it and get to know it by walking, skiing or climbing. Discovering a world that has been able to resist mass tourism by preserving its environment and cultural traditions.
