An introduction to Cross-country Skiing
Their first steps in Nordic skiing with confidence!
From the age of two and a half, your child can discover cross-country skiing in the Piou-Piou garden, a safe, specially designed area. Guided every step of the way by our caring esf instructors, they’ll learn to glide whilst having fun, using lightweight equipment provided by esf. On flat terrain and parallel tracks, they’ll gradually build confidence and develop their first Nordic skiing skills.

Our Meal Option is available when booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my child cries on the first day?
The professionals at the Club Piou Piou are experienced in recognising separation tears linked to fear of the unknown. They will do everything they can to reassure and distract your little ones. Open communication with parents is essential.
What is the daily programme at Club Piou Piou?
  • The daily programme is designed to respect children’s natural rhythms
  • Outside ski learning sessions, the time is divided between snack breaks, toilet breaks, games, and discovering the snow and mountain environment.
Morning, afternoon or full-day lessons?
  • For 3-year-olds, we recommend half-day options. If your child is an early riser, morning lessons are ideal. If they are a late riser, afternoon ski lessons are preferable
  • For 4–5-year-olds, full-day options are available. We recommend a lunch break before lessons resume in the afternoon.
What equipment does my child need?
  • Ski boots in the correct size, worn with a single pair of socks
  • Skis: the tips should reach chin height. Please trust the professionals for adjustments.
  • No ski poles are used at Club Piou Piou.
  • A helmet is strongly recommended.
Can parents attend the lessons?
It is natural to want to watch your child, but this can disrupt the lesson and may lead to more tears from your little one. Instead, we recommend asking for a short feedback session at the end of the lesson.
