Orientation map

  • Choose high-top shoes over sneakers for mountain trails

  • Bring rain gear (the weather changes quickly in the mountains), sunglasses, a hat or cap, sunscreen, a bottle of water (or baby bottle), and a snack

  • Avoid going too high in altitude with a baby under 1 year old (risk of ear infections)

  • Stay well-hydrated (especially children)

  • Choose hikes suitable for the children’s ages (duration, elevation gain)

  • Take regular breaks
    You should also remember to:

  • Check the weather forecast

  • Check the ski lift schedules

  • Familiarize yourself with the route

  • Protected plants, wildlife, and minerals are part of the landscape. Please respect them.

  • Take all your trash with you. Recycling bins are available at the resort.

  • It is recommended that you keep your dogs on a leash.

  • During your hikes, you may need to cross cattle pens. Please remember to close them behind you.

  • You may encounter herds of sheep grazing. Guardian dogs are there to protect them. They are not trained to be aggressive but are trained to act as a deterrent.
