The activity, which is free of charge (a deposit is required for the loan of equipment), is offered throughout the winter season to around fifty families each week. Bookings at the Tourist Office. Get your cameras ready!

The aim is to awaken their curiosity, develop their confidence and give them their first taste of skiing, all while having fun. This gentle, personalised introduction takes place in the ESF kindergarten, and costs €39 per session. It’s a great way to start your skiing adventure with confidence!

Life in the mountains in the past, with its customs and traditions. From fireside evenings to surprising dishes, did you know? From its origins in Norway to the Val d’Allos, the history of skiing over the centuries. But will you be able to put the pair together?
