About Us
A team of outdoor sports enthusiasts with over 15 years of experience
Oxygen Aventure is, above all, a story of passion, the great outdoors and meaningful connections. For many years, we have been guiding people of all ages to discover some of the most beautiful natural sites in the Pyrenees (South of France), including the Corbières and Fenouillèdes areas. Today, the company is led by Elsa, the founder and an experienced instructor, supported by a dedicated team of certified, committed, and passionate guides.
Our Approach and Philosophy
At Oxygen Aventure, we are committed to a simple yet essential vision: offering small groups, personalized instruction, an authentic immersion in nature, and activities led by qualified instructors in a safe environment. But above all, we take our time. We take the time to build your confidence, help you improve, and ensure you have a truly memorable experience.
A dedicated team working alongside you
For over 10 years, we’ve been a close-knit, dedicated team. We’re all state-certified instructors with years of experience, but above all, we have a deep connection to our region. Here, we don’t just take you on an activity—we share places we know like the back of our hands, eager to help you experience them the way we love them.

Our playground

It’s the perfect place for a variety of accessible and exciting adventures.
Our commitment to nature
At Oxygen Aventure, respect for the environment is an integral part of how we operate. We take care to move through unspoiled natural environments with discretion, minimize our impact, and raise awareness of the richness and fragility of these areas.
Because protecting these places also means ensuring that we can continue to enjoy and share them, we are committed to responsible practices every day, without ever losing sight of the safety, professionalism, and camaraderie that define the spirit of our outings.
An adventure that brings you close to nature, while respecting the world around us.
