En passant par la Montagne

The association creating social, educational and solidarity links…

The association En Passant Par la Montagne helps teenagers and adults facing difficult life situations (social difficulties, disability, illness, school dropout, etc.) to have access to the mountains. This environment is a way to find motivation to surpass oneself and o make a fresh start.

Every year the association organizes over 30 educational trips and inclusive projects in the mountains, carrying to the summit the values of social diversity, equality and sharing!

The association offers 4 types of actions :

 - Social and educational moutain: With the help of social and medical structures, building educational projects in the mountains for a better well-being and social and cultural openness for those in difficulty

- Insertion through the Mountain: Implementation of social and professional integration projects for those who live in mountain areas but do not have the opportunity to access them.

- Inclusive mountain sports clubs: Affiliated with the French Federation of Alpine Mountain Clubs, it develops 2 climbing clubs to offer human and friendly vertical sessions and 1 hiking club to allow people in vulnerable situations to hike in complete safety.

- Training in the educational mountain: Organization of training courses for mountain professionals and social workers to learn how to take care of people in difficulty in the mountains
