Handiski: so the physically challenged can enjoy the snow too

Skiing is not reserved for people without handicaps. If you want to go skiing, winter sports holidays in the Pays du Mont-Blanc are strictly no problemo. Thanks to a team of professionals highly skilled in the improvement of glide sport accessibility, resorts today provide more and more possibilities for all, with easier access, specially designed accommodation and equipment and trained professionals who help you do exactly what you want to do. Ski schools and associations like Ski Assis Evasion exist purely to assist with your outings. The instructors are delighted to teach you how to use a "bob" and seats fitted with skis and will guide you through the most beautiful skiing areas. In fact, Combloux and Les Houches were pioneers in Handiskiing. In just one week you'll be able to get down the slopes - unlike many unchallenged people! The Prarion cable car was the first to be specially equipped for Handiskiers and the personnel has been specially trained to help. If you simply want to benefit from the joys of effortless gliding, try a ride in an armchair-ski. An instructor guides you down the trails with all the fun of powder snow and wide-radius turns. The accommodation-providers participate in this wonderful scheme and are increasingly numerous to propose adapted individual or collective residences. Depending on the resort and your holiday scheme, equipment is rented or lent and you can trust the Pays du Mont-Blanc to do everything it can to make your skiing dreams come true!
