Children’s Ski School

(4 years +)

Let us introduce you to ESF Ski School. Described as a ‘Premium ski school in Morzine’ and popular with all our guests, this is a great and successful introduction to winter sports for your child.

• For children 4+
• A group size of 4 -6
• Instructors who speak English and are all very experienced at teaching children.
• A great price too!

At the end of the week your child will be tested to see if they will graduate to the next level, they may gain a badge and a certificate or they may not. If you would prefer for your child not to be a part of this system, it is best to opt for private lessons.

The meeting point for the Ski School is at the bottom of the Pleney telecabine where you meet at their office for the first day. This is just 250m from Apartment Petit George. The ski school will give you directions for the following days (typically meeting at the op of the telecabine).

Both of these are on bus line D. The bus travels anticlockwise around the loop.

The bus then continues to opposite the church where you can change and access many other bus lines or continues on to Pleney.

Walk the dotted red line in the middle of the map above or take the bus to the maire/church.

What to do in an emergency on the piste

Do what you can to secure the area. You can walk a few steps up from the injured and put your skis in the snow in an X shape to stop anyone skiing into the patient. Call the emergency piste rescue. If you have no service flag send someone to tell the person at the top or bottom of the lift. Keep the patient warm. Stay calm and reassure your casualty.
