The ice rink of the Olympic Park, a sporty and family interlude
Do you want to feel like the next Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron? During your stay, take a break from family activities to visit the Olympic Park, in the heart of Meribel! The large ice rink offers a real sporting and welcoming break for all the members of the family. The program includes activities for all ages… We love it! Initiations and training courses are possible for those who would like to improve their skills, and equipment is available for the little ones who do not feel comfortable on ice skates yet. Every Tuesday evening, visitors can attend a wild game of ice hockey for a one-of-a-kind experience. The rink, with its delightful atmosphere, has many other surprises in store for you – in addition to putting on your skates, you can go and relax in the bowling area or in a large, heated swimming pool!
A hot air balloon to dream above the clouds
The mountain becomes magical when you see it from above! If you wish to admire the snowy landscapes from the sky, hotel Le Coucou can arrange a specialist activity in Méribel, and will organize hot air balloon flights from the Courchevel altiport. After a journey of only 40 minutes, one has the impression of entering a new world, a sublime place where one’s eyes are filled with wonder. Take-off at nine o’clock, in a private gondola for a show that will be hard to forget: the sunrise over the slopes and the resorts will enchant visitors. Sounds, sensations and unique feelings: hot air ballooning is like nothing you have ever experienced. After an hour of almost dreamlike flight, you will return to skiing with stars in your eyes and a smile on your face!
A sports coach to test your endurance at altitude
