Vahina Explores the Riou Canyon
Hiking with your dog in the French Alps, as told by my husky
Hiking with your dog in the French Alps, in the Riou Canyon: click the photo to play the video.
Vahina doesn’t walk down into the Riou Canyon: she charges down. First, she takes the slope at full speed, without a second’s hesitation.
Then she reaches the stream. After the rain, it is only a thin trickle of water, but that is enough to make her happy. Next, she explores: no corner of the canyon escapes her curiosity, and you can see how much she loves it.
That is why I film these walks. Hiking with your dog is first of all the joy of watching him discover a place with all his enthusiasm. That is also why, at Vahina-Paradis B&B, your dog is welcome, whatever he is like, and you can share moments like these with him.

Your host, the photographer
My photos are photographic improvisation, just like theatrical improvisation. They illustrate my happiness in the present moment. Jean-Philippe Tchifteyan, drama teacher, welcomes you to Vahina-Paradis B&B in Châteauvieux, together with Vahina, his husky.
