Festival Lectures en Cimes

Lectures en Cimes celebrates romance in all its forms, fantasy, and children’s literature, set against the backdrop of an exceptional natural landscape.

Throughout the weekend, meet 13 authors and illustrators at book-signing sessions, discover the publishing house Éditions LL, and browse the booths, including one featuring a creator of handmade candles inspired by the worlds of romance and fantasy.

Extend the experience by participating in creative book-themed workshops—such as marbling, sewing, bookmark-making, and illustrated dictation—led by passionate instructors.

As night falls, join a literary hike followed by a torchlit return to wrap up the day in a warm and immersive atmosphere.
Combining literature, creativity, and nature, Lectures en Cimes invites you to enjoy a unique, friendly experience open to all book lovers.
