Following Paul on the Farandole des Écrins meant embracing the rhythm of the mountains. LINKA’s role was to capture the intensity of the challenge, but above all the encounters and the spirit of the refuges that mark his journey.
Farandole des écrins
Farandole des Écrins is the challenge that Paul Bonhomme, a passionate high-mountain athlete, set out to achieve.
Over six days, he embarked on an ambitious crossing: linking the 33 mountain huts of the Écrins Massif. A guiding thread that takes us deep into the landscapes and spirit of the park.
Throughout this journey, LINKA accompanied him to produce a full photo report and a film retracing this extraordinary adventure.

“I had in mind a farandole. Something where we would take each other by the hand, to pay tribute to the mountains and to those who live there and welcome us, if only for a moment.”
LINKA co-founders“Between two refuges, there are more than just kilometers. There are silences, shifting light, and rare moments that only patience allows you to capture.”
Because refuges are far more than shelters. They embody the spirit of the mountains. Without their guardians, these places of passage and connection could not exist.
At each stage, Paul meets these women and men to pay tribute to them. Between athletic performance, genuine exchanges, and breathtaking panoramas, this journey blends effort, humanity, and contemplation.
