Vercorin minigolf: a family round in the heart of the resort
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.
An 18-hole course in the mountains
In the heart of the Vercorin resort, near the cable-car arrival, the minigolf unrolls its 18 holes in a green, sunny setting. Obstacles, bends and little slopes: each hole has its challenge, to be met in a few strokes of the club. It's the ideal extra activity of a mountain stay, open to all ages and without booking.
What your children will discover
Minigolf is the perfect skill game for families: children aim, judge their strength and count their strokes, in a relaxed atmosphere. Everyone plays at their own level, the little ones as much as the parents. It's also a good way to learn to be patient, to cheer others on and to savour a small triumph when the ball finally drops into the hole.
What you do and the atmosphere on site
You pick up a club and ball, and set off around the course at your own pace. The atmosphere is friendly and good-natured, in the resort setting. Between a descent of the Marmot Trail and a break on a terrace, minigolf perfectly fills a family late afternoon.
