A year-round family space in Vercorin? It's the Lavioz. In summer, a playground, pump track, tennis and free equipment hire; in winter, a snow garden, ice rink and beginners' sledging. An open-air playground in the heart of the resort, where children let off steam all year round.

Fancy a round of minigolf in the mountains? In Vercorin, an 18-hole course awaits families in the heart of the resort, a stone's throw from the cable-car arrival. A simple, friendly activity, perfect between two walks, for young and old.

Fancy some thrills on two wheels in Vercorin? In summer, you take the cable car up then ride an all-terrain scooter down the mountain, over around 500 metres of descent to the village. A fun, exhilarating ride, to share once children are comfortable on a bike.

Fancy climbing through the trees as a family, above Vercorin? At Sigeroulaz, reached by cable car, Forêt Aventure rolls out its treetop adventure courses and ziplines in the high-altitude forest. Thrills, height and fresh air guaranteed, from the moment children are 110 cm tall.
