Overview

Trekking sarl is a French private company founded in Marseille in 1976 by Axel de Neufville. Based in Lambesc, the company is principally associated with the design and manufacture of paragliders and paramotor wings, including ready-to-fly aircraft. Its aviation activities are conducted through the Trekking Parapentes division, which is based in Saint-Mathieu-de-Tréviers and was originally located in Lambesc. The company has produced a range of named aircraft models, including the B-Bus, Carver, Elise, Just One, K2, Sebring, Senso, Sport, Trek, and Xenos. Beyond aviation, Trekking operates several outdoor and travel-related activities. Its Lambesc division makes luggage, money belts, and other accessories, while a separate facility in Saint-Cannat produces truck-top tents intended for four-wheel-drive vehicles. The resulting portfolio spans recreational aviation, overland travel, and practical travel equipment rather than representing a single narrowly focused consumer category. Trekking sarl is organized as a French société à responsabilité limitée, or sarl, a form of private limited company. Public reference material identifies its principal base and operating divisions but does not provide detailed information about ownership, current management, revenue, distribution networks, or individual product launch dates. The company’s identity is therefore best understood through its combination of lightweight aircraft manufacturing and equipment for travel and outdoor mobility.

History

Trekking sarl was established in Marseille in 1976 by Axel de Neufville. From its origins, the company developed as a French manufacturer connected with lightweight and recreational aviation. Its principal aviation activity became the design and construction of paragliders and paramotor wings, supplied in ready-to-fly aircraft form. The company’s aircraft range has included the B-Bus, Carver, Elise, Just One, K2, Sebring, Senso, Sport, Trek, and Xenos models. The available reference material does not assign production years or detailed technical specifications to these individual aircraft, so they are best treated as members of Trekking’s historical product range rather than as a dated sequence of generations. The aviation business operates under the Trekking Parapentes division. This division is based in Saint-Mathieu-de-Tréviers, although it was originally located in Lambesc, the town that remains associated with Trekking sarl’s company headquarters. The relocation or change of base indicates an organizational separation between the company’s corporate center and its aircraft-manufacturing activity, but the available sources do not document when that change occurred. Trekking expanded or maintained activities beyond aircraft production through a set of travel and outdoor-equipment divisions. The Lambesc operation produces travel luggage, money belts, and related accessories. Another division, based in Saint-Cannat, manufactures truck-top tents for four-wheel-drive trucks. The company is also described as producing photo and video accessories, giving it a broader outdoor and travel-equipment profile alongside its specialist aviation work. Legally, Trekking is organized as a société à responsabilité limitée, abbreviated sarl, the French equivalent of a private limited-company structure. Publicly available reference material identifies the founder, principal locations, business areas, and aircraft names, but does not establish detailed ownership arrangements, executive succession, financial performance, distribution partnerships, or dated corporate transactions. No documented campaigns, scandals, major acquisitions, public-company listings, or formal leadership changes are identified in the supplied sources. Trekking sarl is consequently characterized as a privately held French specialist manufacturer with a longstanding presence in recreational aviation and adjacent travel equipment.
