Alpine Wood Carving Workshop

Immerse yourself fully in the fascinating world of woodworking thanks to an authentic carving workshop located in the heart of the mountains. You will be guided by a passionate artisan carver who generously shares his expertise and essential techniques. He will teach you how to observe local wood and understand its unique texture, shaped by the alpine climate. You will discover how to choose a piece suited to your creative project based on its natural characteristics. The artisan will then show you how to hold your tools with precision to carve safely. You will learn to draw simple lines to clearly visualize the shape you want to create. Each movement becomes progressive and controlled in order to achieve a harmonious and pleasing sculpture. You can create a delicate leaf inspired by the mountain flora you have observed during your walks, or a small bird reminiscent of the species living around the alpine chalets. Some prefer to carve a mountain silhouette reflecting the majestic peaks surrounding the cozy workshop, while others choose a traditional motif rooted in local history.

Tiny house

The atmosphere of the tiny house makes for an intimate and warm experience thanks to its welcoming and bright space. The fire crackles softly and helps to create a soothing environment conducive to concentration. You take the time to breathe deeply and listen to the tranquil sounds of nature outside. This moment allows you to forget the fast pace of everyday life and regain a sense of balance. The progress of your sculpture boosts your confidence and nourishes lasting creative satisfaction. You receive personalized advice to improve your technique and explore new ideas. Each participant leaves with a unique piece reflecting their imagination and connection to the mountains. You enjoy an enriching experience combining craftsmanship, relaxation, and sensory discovery. This workshop ultimately becomes a precious memory celebrating the simple beauty of alpine wood.
