Some frequently asked questions by those bringing the family to holiday in the snowfields...

Is there child care / day care available?
Each resort has child care and day care available from half days to consecutive full days.

Do I need a lift pass to take the children tobogganing?
No, a lift pass is not necessary to toboggan. It is strongly recommended that you stay within the designated tobogganing areas within the resort.

What is the Child ages for a lift pass?
Child ages range from resort to resort, if you have any doubts please ask a consultant. Some resorts have free lift passes for children under 5 years however, they must be accompanied by an adult and lessons are not included in this price.

Do I need waterproof clothing for snowplay and skiing/boarding?
It is strongly recommended that you hire or purchase waterproof clothing for snow activities.

Do I need travel insurance?
We strongly recommend travel insurance as all monies paid within 2 months are non-refundable. Travel insurance can cover you for a number of situations you may not consider if travelling to the snow for the first time, such as piste closure and loss of lift tickets. For a detailed list of items covered, ask your consultant for a travel insurance flyer.
