Ski area Les Orres
Parents can soundly leave their 3 to 5-year olds on the practice slope in the valley, which is fenced off from the rest of the area. The 6 to 12-years olds in the meantime can get more confident on the beginner run. Ski and snowboard cracks can run riot in the snow park, which offers a number of rails and kickers. Boardercross is also available. Therefore the family ski area Les Orres has really something to offer for everyone.
Furthermore, the ski region offers over 120 Wi-Fi hot spots, for free.
Après ski Les Orres
If you'd rather prefer to explore the area sitting down, there is also the opportunity to take a ride on a horse-drawn sleigh. A further highlight for families with small children is the ice rink in resort, which is ideal to get kids used to ice skates. Viewing the idyllic resort from above is also possible, as paragliding is offered here as well.
And if all this is still not enough, a visit to the tourism information office in the resort centre can give you more ideas for leisure time activity. Every Saturday the new weekly programme is displayed here, announcing events, parties and further activities.
Nightlife in Les Orres tends to be rather quiet, however there are still a number of places to go to enjoy a good meal or a hot chocolate or even dance for a while. For dinner you should try cheese fondue or raclette in the "La Bouscatière" or also some classical French cuisine in the ""Côté Terroire". Exquisite wines and schnapps are offered in the "Winter Lounge" together with tasty Tapas. In the lower part of 1650 you can especially find the local bars. Beer, cocktails and wine are served in "A Grande Cabane" for instance. Afterwards you can go partying e.g. in the "Le Sport" in the resort centre, where is also a DJ who ensures some juicy beats.
