Fancy letting the children burn off energy in the open air in Anzère? In summer, the Family Fun Park sets up in the heart of the village: trampoline, 6-metre climbing wall, slackline, airbag and a mini treetop course. An hour of sport and laughter, from age 5, in a mountain setting.

Fancy a mountain swim whatever the weather? In Anzère, above Sion, the Espace Bains offers indoor and outdoor pools at 33°C, human-scale and perfect for families. A bubble of relaxation all year round, with a view of the Alps.

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 whizzing down the snow as a family in Vercorin? In winter, a sledging run of around 2 kilometres comes down from the intermediate station to the village, on a gentle slope ideal for children. A simple, joyful sliding outing, in the heart of the Valais.

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 an easy, change-of-scenery walk above Sion? In Anzère, the Pétoli Tour is a 4.5 km loop that follows the bisse de Sion before heading into the forest, with a magnificent view over the plain and Crans-Montana. A free walk, perfect with children, all year round.

Fancy a mountain walk that thrills children? In Vercorin, the Marmot Trail descends from Crêt-du-Midi through alpine pastures and arolla pine forest, dotted with seven playful stations about the world of marmots. A perfect nature outing for families, in summer and autumn.
