Snow garden

With little ones, you need a lot of patience... and luckily, that's our speciality!

At the Jardin des Neiges des Marécottes, children aged 3 and up can discover snow and skiing in a safe, fun environment that is adapted to their age group.

Through games, obstacle courses and lots of laughter, they learn to take their first steps on skis while gaining confidence on the snow.

Supervised by our instructors trained in teaching young children, they progress at their own pace, without pressure, so that skiing is above all associated with fun and discovery.

A gentle introduction to the world of skiing, in a natural and authentic setting.

New products

  • Gliss' du samedi: Saturday group skiing (from 10 January to 7 February)
  • Les p'tits glisseurs : Saturday parent-child lessons (from 10 January to 7 February)

This season, Saturday Skiing allows children from Blue League level upwards to progress throughout the winter in a relaxed and motivating atmosphere. Five Saturday morning skiing sessions are planned, accompanied by our enthusiastic instructors. Classes start with a minimum of four participants.

Younger children, aged 2 to 5, can discover snow and skiing with the Les P’tits Glisseurs course. Accompanied by mum or dad, they take their first steps on skis in a safe and fun environment, guided by our instructors who are trained to work with young children.
