That's it, we see the dawning our General Winter, the days are shorter, the leaves collected with the shovel, preventive advertisements against colds abound in drugstores and toys will not be long to invade the shelves of department stores And yes ...

Instants d'Absolu, Cantal version of pampering
First trip: the Massif Central
A totally arbitrary manner, I decided, somewhat in the manner of Asterix the Gaul in turn begin my journey through the center of France. The regional parks of this beautiful country have joined together to offer a tourism development unit in their territories and so they propose actions and ideas. Their choice fell on "absolute moments", a magical place in southern Massif Central (Chavagnac Cantal), a hotel that is not quite a between cozy, spa, wellness but also an amazing part from a frozen lake in winter (the lake of sin) and high performance ranges. Between winter pleasures of snowshoeing and hiking pedestrian steps from the ecolodge, or pushing spatulas at Lioran (approximately 30 minutes) your hearts surely sway. A place thought and wanted as a piece of the World, a piece of Ireland, Highlands, the Auvergne sauce and flavors ditto (Truffade, cheese and Salers meat ....). All but a classic hotel makes a real break to say phew. At 1200m, snowshoeing is one chaussera on, and recharge the batteries. Long live the Auvergne!

Second step: The Chamonix valley and innovative modes of transport
public transport strengthened and deserved a label for Chamonix
public transport strengthened and deserved a label for Chamonix
You tell me, Chamonix, but everyone knows, no need to talk about it ... As is so sure? Did you know that the station is part of the exclusive club of certified green flakes? (With Rousses in the Jura Villars in the Swiss Valais and lately Châtel in Haute Savoie). Since 2005, the inhabitants and tourists of the entire valley can gracefully and use unlimited public transport (Vallorcine to Servoz to the Swiss border). But the innovative scheme does not stop there, in fact the creations of new routes and timings according to the seasons have been in the spotlight in 2015. The city center shuttle will soon be replaced by electric vehicles, next April, 6 hybrid buses will replace the old fleet, and in 2020 an all-electric bus will be on the network, initiating actually an ecological transition that anticipates strong in the Mont Blanc country. More isolated people are offered a Transport on demand (TAD). Finally, people with disabilities may benefit, after registration, a door to door service in adapted vehicles. Tourists can also take advantage of the bus network and train with the guest card Viacham (one night is equal to one day of free movement). The bad weather transportation plan allows more than rearrange routes if part of the area is not open due to unsuitable weather conditions. And the bike path ahead .... Thank you to Pierre Chapet charge transport mission in the valley.
