Kaleidoscope: never short of ideas!

During family holidays you need a wide choice of things to do to keep everyone happy. Young people are always on the move and determined to involve you in new sporting adventures. But you might prefer to rest, discover the local culture and take time out for a stroll. In the Pays du Mont-Blanc you can do whatever you want! 

Angling and swimming in the Pays du Mont-Blanc are good ideas for making the most of the summer without suffering from the heat. More conventionally, tennis is always a popular sport and there are a huge number of indoor and outdoor courts to take time out to improve the top spin of your backhand! Plus the summer tournaments in Saint-Gervais and Les Contamines where the international players clash to entertain the holiday-makers. 
To this list of delights there are other thrills including horse and pony treks, flights in hot air balloons, aircraft and helicopters with unusual and magic views of the peaks of the aiguilles, domes and spurs seen from above, the beauties of glacier hiking, ball games in swimming pools, Paintball and bowling! And for cultural relaxation try the media library, the book libraries, the alpine gardens and the discovery centres and museums which will take you back in time to better understand, our local history and culture, the way Earth works and the environmental challenges of our century
