All parents know that what their children need more than anything is to feel loved.
One of the most effective ways to make them feel like that is by going on family holidays as not only do they get to create fun memories together but also they all broaden their horizons by getting to know a new place and a different lifestyle.
Although they all sound great, the reality of going on family holidays is that parents are stressed most of the time because they have to take extra care of their children as they are not familiar with their surroundings.
As you have probably guessed from the title, we are going to tell you all about one of the most family-friendly ski resorts in France where you will enjoy your holidays to the fullest. This is the Sainte Foy ski resort. Why do we think that you and your family should visit it this winter?
Reason 1: The hidden gem of the French Alps
Sainte-Foy is a small resort at an altitude of 1550 metres. Its location there would make most people expect that it would be full of visitors every winter.
However, this is not the case because there are some more popular ski resorts in the close vicinity such as Les Arcs and Tignes.
This should not make you hesitate to book your holidays to Sainte-Foy with Erna Low because the resort is as beautiful and as well-equipped as all the others around it.
Not to mention that the fact that it is not as crowded makes it easier for parents to keep track of their kids’ whereabouts.
Reason 2: Perfect for people at all ages
It is important to note that Sainte-Foy takes pride in the wide range of available outdoor and indoor activities which meet everyone’s needs, skills and tastes.
Babies and toddlers can enjoy the care of professional nannies or join the kids club. As for adults, including the elderly, there are many après ski activities they can spend their time on such as visiting the wellness centre or the mountain restaurants.
In addition to that, there are many activities for people who do not ski. For example, they can go snowshoeing, which means that they will walk on special trails wearing skis, or go on a helicopter ride.
Reason 3: Ideal for beginner skiers
If you want to learn how to ski, Sainte-Foy is the perfect place to visit. Ski lessons are offered to both kids and adults by professional ski instructors so that all visitors can feel confident and safe to practise their new skills.
There are two green and seven blue pistes, which are designed for beginner learners so that they can test their skills without being intimidated by the “competition” or the mighty nature of the mountain.
Of course, there are red and black pistes as well so that intermediate and experienced skiers can also have fun in the resort. It is worth mentioning that there are instructors and guides who speak English, so you do not have to worry if you do not speak French.
