Activity description

The GTR Mountain winter sports base in Chamrousse offers you to introduce your children to snowmobiling in the Alps, not far from Grenoble.

Give your children and teenagers a fun and thrilling experience by offering them an introduction to snowmobiling from Chamrousse!

They will be accompanied on a safe and specially designed course with adapted snowmobiles under the supervision of trained instructors. Before starting, a briefing will allow them to understand how the machine works and how to drive it.

The initiation for children aged 6 to 11 years lasts two 10-minute sessions. They will do the first practical exercises until they can do a series of complete laps on their own.

As for the teenagers (12 to 17 years old), once they have acquired sufficient autonomy, they will take a 40-minute discovery ride on the Clairières plateau next to Chamrousse. Passage between snow-covered fir trees, climbs, descents... A fun ride before returning to the snowmobile chalet to enjoy a well-deserved hot chocolate!

To discover snowmobiling, nothing better than an initiation with GTR Mountain from Chamrousse!
