A fun introduction to biathlon for all the family
A combination of skill and endurance, biathlon is a fun discipline that will appeal to young and old alike. This activity, which comes straight from Scandinavia and involves alternating between cross-country skiing and rifle shooting, is accessible to children aged 8 and over in the Les Menuires resort.

Today, biathlon is no longer reserved for the pros! In fact, ski resorts offer introductory days, ideal for discovering the basics of the discipline in a safe environment.
Accompanied by experienced instructors, you can progress in a friendly atmosphere with family and friends!
