Security

Skiing and snowboarding offer thrills and a special connection with the mountains, but they also involve risks that must be managed to ensure a pleasant and safe experience.

Before setting off, a good level of physical fitness is recommended. Wearing a helmet is strongly advised, as are back protectors for snowboarders. Equipment (skis, bindings, boots) must be properly adjusted and suited to the skier's skill level.

A very enjoyable trip in a small group (70 people max), far from large resorts. An unusual hostel close to the slopes. Super friendly and helpful staff.

I particularly appreciated the availability and helpfulness of the entire team on site, who were always eager to assist. One point to consider (depending on the hostel's occupancy): ensure a better balance in the room allocation (there's a significant difference between rooms for 8 people and rooms for 2), and take greater account of the presence of snorers in these rooms when this has been reported or requested to be avoided!
