Ourson course
Our Ourson lessons are specifically tailored for children aged 4 who have completed their Garolou, as well as for beginners aged 5, providing a magical introduction to the world of snow!

In a safe and enjoyable environment, our experienced instructors will support your child in learning to ski, helping them build confidence and progress at their own pace.

Through engaging games that combine skiing with snow exploration, your little ones will start with an introduction in our kindergarten area before moving on to conquer the beginners' slopes of our resort for a gentle and secure progression.

All our answers to your questions

Do I need a ski pass for this course?
A ski pass is required.
A free ski pass is available for children under 5. All you have to do is pick it up at the lift ticket office and show proof of age.
For children aged 5 and over, a "beginner la Chapelle" ski pass is required. This gives access to the beginners' area of the Crêt Béni ski area, as well as the first chairlift, which can be used as the group progresses. For more information, go to the "Get a ski passpage.

Is insurance included?
No, insurance is not included in the price of our courses. We recommend that you take out insurance to ensure that your stay is as worry-free as possible.
Can I attend my child's class?
It's completely understandable to want to watch your little one’s first slides, but we kindly ask that you refrain from lingering at the edges of the kindergarten. Doing so may disrupt your child’s progress.
Will my child receive a medal?
Every Friday, Club Piou Piou holds Piou Piou tests, where your children will earn a medal to celebrate their efforts!
