Become part of a big family
Joining a small group of families for a week of activities in the French Alps is the best way to kick start kids into action. It’s amazing how a bit of subtle peer pressure can turn a couch potato into an active adventurer in the space of a few short introductions. Guides and instructors aren’t just activity experts; they’re also adept at ice breaking and ensuring everyone is enjoying the Alps without feeling pressured to do so.Group leaders are friendly and fun. They ‘get’ kids and can encourage them to join in where parents might not achieve the same success. Once a day of activities is over then it’s all back to base for food, a spot of wild swimming or just relaxing with the gang. Downtime is just as important as all out action. Where else will your kids get to gossip about whose dad screamed the loudest at the waterfall or which mum held on for the longest at the high ropes course?
Single parent families often opt for small group activity vacations as it gives them a chance to hang out with their own children and meet new people without the hassle of having to do everything on their own.
“Kids and teens love swimming under waterfalls and in lakes, white water rafting, ropes courses, rock climbing, hiking... the secret is to find new friends, as children who hate walking become bionic when they are with a gaggle of new mates!”
Tailor made family activity vacations
Tailor made vacations allow active families to experience the Alps in spring and autumn. This is an ideal option for families who are keen cyclists. It’s far preferable to pedal in comfortable temperatures outside of summer, and you’ll get to see more of the region rather than staying in one place. Also, before you worry about your kids attempting crazy cols, there’s a really nice river route between the lakes of Geneva, Bourget and Annecy that’s actually rather flat.Luggage transfers, route information and assistance is included so all you have to do is pedal, picnic, pedal, picnic, and maybe take a plunge in a lake or two.
What can we do?
Family activity vacations in the Alps will usually include at least four full days of activities each week. Activities can be tailored to suit the interests and ages of the group as a whole or you can pick and choose which activities you want to take part in. All instruction and equipment will be included.Our top France family Vacation

How old do my children need to be?
Small group activity vacations usually work better with children over nine years old, through to mid-teens. However, you know your children. If you've got a particularly active seven or eight year old that would enjoy walking or rafting, and can follow safety instructions, then why not?Do we need to be super fit?
Hey, there's going to be a fair amount of outdoor action, it’s an activity vacation after all, but if you're willing to put your trust in the instructors, try something new and smile then why not give it a go? There really is nothing to worry about if you're not in tip top condition. Also, let's face it: everyone looks a little bit silly in a wetsuit.
