Located in Crans-Montana in the Valais canton, Le Régent’s Outdoor Education programme comprising frequent expeditions, wild camping, ski-touring and cross-country skiing, takes full advantage of its stunning location to provide students with the personal skills and understanding of the environment that will serve them well in the future.
Our boarding school in the sunny Swiss canton of Valais, is the ideal place for students to become all they can be amongst inspiring students and educators in a family-like atmosphere.
At the same time, Le Régent is proud of its commitment to contemporary pedagogy.
