You will be renovating the pavements reconstruction of a “Charreyron” (path) in the middle of the village. For this purpose, a technical animator will always work by your side. You will remove the existing cover layer and replace it by “trifous” (local round stones) laid side by side, on a soil layer. This traditional technique gives a beautiful aesthetic result.
Allègres school, located in the centre of the village, will be made available to the group. You will sleep on mattresses on the floor, in three classrooms on the first floor. On the ground floor you will use the fully-equipped kitchen and a large activity room for socializing. Showers and toilets are also on site. The group will be sharing the cleaning chores and preparing meals together. The budget will be allocated to the group leader and you will participate in the preparation of dishes with good products from the market and local producers.
Allègre is a small town located in the Haute-Loire County in the Auvergne region, 30 km north of Le-Puy-en-Velay city. It is a village located in the Natural Regional Park of Livradois-Forez, with picturesque alleyways and red roofed houses, built on the slopes of an extinct volcano, the "Mont Bar". From the "Potence" (gallows) at the top end of the village you can overlook hundreds of kilometres of countryside! You will have the chance to go swimming in lakes, attend local celebrations and take part in outdoor leisure activities.
