The six-kilometre toboggan run around the foot of Peclet glacier has to be experienced, even for seasoned skiers who feel they’ve already seen it all. Ice diving is also available, and the Turkish-style hammam, the sauna, and the sports centre – with swimming pool – are all highly attractive ways to spend your downtime.
Or, if you’d rather stay active, there’s tennis, squash, and snow showing all to be done – and even a bowling alley if that’s your thing.
