Comfort, conviviality and nature come together to offer you a vacation that's both exotic and accessible. Discover six family-friendly summer experiences in Valmeinier, all within easy reach of your Cévéo accommodation.

1- Crazy Pong: a giant, crazy version of ping-pong

Crazy Pong is the art of transforming a classic game into a delirious experience. Tables come in round, asymmetrical, tilted and holey shapes: here, the aim isn't so much to win as to laugh. Accessible to all ages, and ideal for a relaxing afternoon with family or friends.

Why try it?For the pleasure of playing without taking oneself too seriously, in a relaxed and participative atmosphere.

2- Obstacle course: test your agility in the great outdoors

Do you like to move, climb and excel? Then this wooden obstacle course is for you. Designed to be both fun and sporty, it features various modules to overcome: balance beams, nets, trunks to climb... There's something for everyone, young and old, as each person progresses at their own pace.

Why try it? Perfect for a challenge with family or friends.

3- The Butterfly Trail

This accessible hike transports you into the fascinating world of butterflies. Along the way, illustrated panels explain the ecological importance of these insects, their life cycle, and the different species that can be encountered in Valmeinier.

This is an ideal outing for families with children, or anyone curious about alpine biodiversity. The walk is punctuated by flowers and pleasant viewpoints, and invites us to slow our pace to better observe what surrounds us.

Why try it? To combine walking and nature awareness.

4- Hike to Lac des Edelweiss: panoramic views of Mont Blanc guaranteed

This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful hikes from Valmeinier. The trail takes you to the Lac des Edelweiss, the lake surrounded by emblematic flowers. The real highlight of this outing is the unobstructed view of Mont Blanc from the heights. Majestic, it seems to float in the distance like a snow-covered lighthouse above the Alps.

Why try it?For the effort justly rewarded by an exceptional setting and an invigorating breath of altitude.

5- Valmigliss: sliding on a buoy, even in summer

Who said sliding was only for winter? Valmigliss offers you the chance to hurtle down the resort's slopes on inflatable buoys, alone or in pairs. Several tracks are available, with turns, bumps or fast descents to get the adrenaline pumping.

This activity is a must for children, but equally appeals to adults who rediscover their childlike soul. Easy to access, it can be practised at any time of day, and offers great family fun.

Why try it? For the sliding, the giggles and the atmosphere!

6- Ruisseling

Halfway between hiking and canyoning, ruisseling consists of climbing up torrent beds on foot, with the help of rocks, small natural slides and currents. Far from extreme routes, this activity remains accessible with appropriate professional supervision.

It's a unique experience that lets you rediscover the mountains from another angle. Fun and refreshing, ruisseling leaves a lasting impression.

Why try it? To experience water trekking in mountain rivers.
