Disconnect to better (re)connect as a family with a snowshoe outing!

In the mountains, it's not always possible to share a sporting activity with your children. Downhill skiing, for example, is a winter sport that requires a great deal of training before it can be practised safely, as does snowboarding.

So it's not often that children can hit the slopes of Courchevel 1850 with their parents. Fortunately, there are other winter activities in the French Alps that serve this purpose. This is particularly true of the snowshoe outings offered by the esf.

Accessible at a young age, around 6 or 8 on average, these outings are ideal for families who want to spend time together during their holidays!

A snowshoe outing is full of advantages for families. First and foremost, it's a great way to share an original, risk-free activity with your children. So it's a great opportunity to strengthen ties and enjoy some memorable moments.

Snowshoeing is also a great way to get away from the hustle and bustle of the ski resort and reconnect with nature and its soothing calm.

With your esf instructor, set off to discover the flora and fauna of Vanoise National Park (animal tracks, etc.) and learn more about the environment around you. Your curious children will love playing adventurer in the snow. It's sure to arouse their curiosity and amuse them at the same time!

Summits, forests, villages... The snowshoe trails in Vanoise National Park will blow your mind, whatever your level of ability. There's no shortage of breathtaking scenery here, and there are several routes you can take from the ski resort.

From your physical abilities and your desires, your esf instructor will design a snowshoe outing to suit you in Courchevel. This way, you'll be able to get the most out of exploring the park's snowy trails with your children.

If you've already done some hiking in the summer in this region, you'll no doubt love rediscovering these wonderful landscapes under the snow and ice.

Depending on the age of your children, don't hesitate to discover the other original activities offered by esf Courchevel 1850. As well as snowshoeing, we also offer cross-country skiing, off-piste skiing and safety courses.

With teenagers or young adults, there are plenty of other experiences to share as a family. Explore our online catalogue of activities and book the ones that best suit your needs. Then all you have to do is pick up your ski pass and equipment to make the most of your stay in the mountains.
