In Méribel, it's perfectly possible for the little ones to take part in the emblematic torchlight descent. In fact, a descent reserved for children taking lessons with esf instructors is organised every Wednesday evening during the school holidays.

At Méribel and Mottaret, budding sports enthusiasts can enjoy a memorable experience on the surrounding slopes, supervised by experienced instructors. It's a unique opportunity for them to discover all the enchantment that the snowy night-time trails have to offer!

The torchlit descent costs €8: so don't wait, book a place for your child at the ESF offices and come and admire your young skier's prowess.

As well as the children's show, the esf instructors will also be performing a magical downhill run on the Méribel or Mottaret stadiums. Every Wednesday evening, even during the school holidays, you can come and marvel at the instructors' show from 6.30pm.
