Useful information
The right ski-outfit is important to keep you comfortable and safe out on the mountain. If you are staying on the slopes, you should have a top, jumper and ski jacket as well as water-resistant ski trousers and ski gloves.
If you are going off-piste or ski touring, you should have light layers you can remove while you climb to avoid over-heating and put back on as you ski down.
Helmets are compulsory for children and strongly recommended for adults and snowboarders. You may never fall but you cannot control how other people ski around you and collisions happen everyday.
Sun protection is very important as the air is thinner and it is very easy to burn or permanently damage your eyes: category 3/4 sunglasses or goggles are a must and sun cream for your face.
Snowboard padding and protection for the back and wrists are recommended but not compulsory.
Our instructors speak French as their first language, but they also speak English and some speak Spanish and German so they can switch during lessons to suite the participants.
Probably! In most cases you will need one as there are no free ski slopes in Les Arcs and our lessons don’t include a ski pass.
The basic pass you will need is the ‘Classic’ lift pass which covers all the slopes in Les Arcs and Peisey-Vallandry. Lift passes are free for under 5s, you can order them online or at the lift pass office and will need to present proof of age for the child to pick them up. Click here for more information
Children skiing: Children booked into the Panda, Yetison or Petit Yeti groups will not need a lift pass on their first day. The instructor will let you know when they will need one.
Adults who have never skied: Ask our sales team for details
Snowboarders (whatever the level): Always need the ‘Classic’ pass.
Yes! There is never insurance of any kind included with any of our lessons or activities.
We strongly recommend getting insurance for your trip: the ‘Carré Neige’ is the most well known for skiing holidays and they have many different types of cover including injuries, emergency rescue (including air-lifts to the hospital), missed lessons, equipment damage and cancellation cover.
You can book it online with your lift pass or at the lift pass offices in-resort.
