High Season
July and August have a large turnout of European visitors. In the last weeks of July and August prices tend to rise dramatically. Reservations in hotels and restaurants must be made in a premeditated manner.
Shoulder Season
From April to June along with September is the middle season and it is the perfect occasion to visit France, with the spring present in April along with a delicious and warm climate, in the month of September, autumn begins with the harvest season.
Low Season
The low season lasts several months, from October to March, where we can find prices at least 50% lower than those of high season. October is still present in the autumn with a cool and clear weather, however, when the winter starts it is the perfect time to go to the high ski season in the mountains.r In Christmas and New Year days, tourists tend to increase, but there is not a great variation in prices. r
Your trip to France
i travel from
Your travel to France has about 13% the climate impact as your entire yearly budget of CO₂ emissions. This "yearly climate-compatible budget" sets the limit of emissions any person should produce in order to keep global warming to below 2C at about 2 tons of CO2. It includes anything from heating to stay warm and cosy in winter, your daily hot showers, the annoying commute to work, any traveling you do, the production of your yummy food and products you buy – and much more you emit by living your life.
Of your yearly CO₂ Budget
13%
Just like slow food – ever thought about slow travel? Discovering the hidden treasures nearby is a great new adventure. Go by train to get a better feeling of small changes in your surroundings or have a fun road trip with your friends.
If you still feel the need to fly, compensate your emissions.
