>>772544Frog here, obviously we don't really have true wilderness like the Scandis or the Americas but we have a huge diversity of landscape. 4 mountain ranges (Alps, Pyrenees, Massif Central, Corsica) + 2 smaller ones (Jura, Vosges), several forests including the biggest "artificial" (as in planted by men, otherwise it's a regular forest) forest in western Europe, an ocean coast fit for surf in the south, beautiful clear water in Brittany, and with huge cliffs furter north, the Med coast best for swimming, lots of rivers and gorges fit for kayak (including the highest European canyon), etc. With a great deal of climates since France has pretty much one foot in the south of Europe and one in the north, it's various in between.
Also a "low" population density for Western Europe (lowest areas being in the Massif Central range pic related, which is practically unknown by foreigners), obviously from an American point of view you'll think it's crowded as fuck but it's less dense than England, Belgium, Germany, Italy for instance, and a lot of other.
The south has far more /out/ potential than the north of the country tho, the north has no mountains save in Alsace, less forests, more population
On a side note, for those thinking European forests are shrinking it's actually the opposite, they have been growing for the past century ever since wood isn't the first source of energy, and keep doing so.
