This holiday, the whole family can go for walks or hikes at the pace of a donkey. Pompon, Cadichon or other, this charming 4-legged companion will guide you along paths and valleys, carry your belongings so you can travel light and can even carry your youngest on his back! He’ll guide you to beautiful panoramas, show you the best grazing spots and, above all, be a faithful friend to your whole family.
