Activities to do with children
Eating outdoors with children makes life a lot more relaxing and all the mountain and lakeside restaurants have a ‘Menu Enfant’, while many have a play area within view of the tables to allow children to play while parents take a little longer over their meal!
Activities for younger children range from donkey rides at Lac des Mines d’Or, pony rides along the Dérêches river in Morzine, to the carousel outside the Tourist Office or visiting the goats in Les Lindarets, the goat village.
Older children can try out climbing on Elephant Rock in St Jean d’Aulps, play tennis, ride the easier cross-country tracks on mountain bikes, try their hand at archery, trampolining or master the various levels of rope course at the exciting Indiana Parc in the Dérêches. Teenagers will enjoy canyoning down waterfalls at the Cascade de Nyon.
There are both indoor and outdoor pools in Morzine, Aquariaz aquatic centre in Avoriaz and the beautiful lac in Montriond or Les Gets lac with the Wibit inflatable activities.
