Is Brides-les-Bains only fun in winter? No way! The French Alps are perfect for spring and summer. Brides-les-Bains is a spa village where you can take it easy, even if you don’t come to get a spa treatment. Go on a walk, have a drink at a cafe, join a yoga class, or perhaps a woodworking workshop.

I always love taking the time to eat out on holiday. In Brides-les-Bains, my stomach can’t keep up with my eyes. I want to taste everything! That would be fine regarding calories because they are closely monitored in Brides-les-Bains. But obviously, you don’t have to. I want to recommend a few good restaurants and outdoor cafes where you can definitely eat and drink well.

You don’t have to look far because Brides-les-Bains is beautifully situated in the French Alps mountains. Nature is everywhere. The Parc Thermal is the green meeting place of the village, and you can go on several pretty hikes, either directly from the town or a short drive away. So, how do you feel about spotting marmots or a sunset hike?
