From a very young age, the Combloux French Ski School (ESF) supports you at every stage of your learning, in all snow sports (alpine skiing, snowboarding, ski touring, handiskiing, etc.)

Ski lessons for all ages and levels

The Combloux Ski School welcomes children from the age of 3 with the Piou-piou club and the oursons lessons. The 110 instructors of the Combloux Ski School also provide snowboarding, ski touring, cross-country skiing and telemark lessons for all ages. People who do not know how to ski or have reduced mobility can also enjoy the Combloux slopes on board a ski chair.

Much more than technicians and teachers, ESF Combloux instructors are mountain enthusiasts, ambassadors of their country and will be keen to share with you much more than a ski lesson.

My mountain adventure

Proposed by ESF Combloux, My Mountain Adventure is aimed at children aged 6 to 13 and invites them to experience nature. The programme includes a variety of fun and sporting activities, for the day or as a week-long course, supervised by professionals.

Young adventurers will have the choice between two base camps: one located at the foot of the slopes, the other, more secret, with a yurt installed in the middle of the forest.

The activities offered include orienteering, slacklining, roller hockey, laser biathlon, cabin building, as well as team sports. Each week will be punctuated by discoveries and moments of play: hikes, treasure hunts, Olympics, and even the Summercamp party.

The courses will take place from Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 16:30 p.m. (meals not included). The groups will be divided by age group, thus making it possible to offer activities adapted to each age group.
