Winter Activity Week Family Holiday

8 days - from $1661

Participate in an exciting range of snow-based activities surrounded by the beauty of the Pyrenean landscape.

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Dog-sledding & snowmobiling
• Snowshoeing & igloo building
• Cross-country & Alpine skiing

Thereâ™s an inspiring range of included activities designed to give you many exciting experiences. Youâ™ll go snowshoeing ⓠconsidered by many to be one of the oldest forms of transport. And then, harnessing huskies to sleds, youâ™ll be pulled through the wilderness.

Switching to motor power you get to grips with two-man snowmobiles. Having fun in the snow is what this trip is all about, and as well as the roar of the snowmobiles youâ™ll also build igloos, learning how to survive in the mountains.

Youâ™ll spend a day cross-country skiing, following the many wooded paths that run through the mountains. It's great fun, and an excellent way to explore the winter landscape.

For novices instruction is included, whilst the more experienced can try some of the area's many runs. Your final day is free either to return to the pistes, have another go at your favourite activity or relax and take in the spectacular scenery (all optional).
