If you are coming in a group and want to be in the same room, contact the sports village one week before the start of the stay.
If you purchased the “arrival the day before” option, we welcome you between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. If you plan to arrive after 8 pm, please contact the sports village (email or phone) so that we can send you the code for the front door. You will then find an envelope with your name and directions to find your room. Dinner is served until 20:30.
During your stay
For the unsupervised half-day, you are free to ride with your friends or alone, enjoy the station or rest between two skiing sessions.
You can participate in the stay if you are:
- insider: Your instructor gives you all the advice to be comfortable on all the blue slopes and some red slopes. You work on your commitment to the track in order to be comfortable on smooth snow as well as test more bumpy snow and trails in order to integrate the “mastery” level group over a future week.
- control: Your instructor develops your ability to evolve with ease on all red slopes (smooth, icy, bumpy) but also some well-prepared black runs in the ski area. This ease on this type of slope allows you to join the “confirmed” group for future weeks of skiing.
- confirmed: The objective of this week is to be comfortable on all snow and all slopes, including to touch the “powder” to switch to an “expert” level on the next vacation week and why not to an off-road trip.
- expert: Have fun with your instructor who refines your technique. Depending on the wishes of the group, the climatic and terrain conditions, you will discover a nice off-trail and the most beautiful runs and spots in the entire ski area.
If you are a beginner, refer to the “Learn to ski in 7 days - Happy Winter” trip
