Summer Camps Verbier
Verbier may be best known as a majestic mountain destination for all in the winter. Still, when the snow disappears, many family-friendly activities are uncovered to be enjoyed all summer long. Whether you are a thrill-seeker, just want to relax, or maybe something in between, there is something for all ages and interests in Verbier during the summer – we cannot recommend a summer escape to the mountains enough!
For many of our summer guests, our partners at Altitude Camps are the go-to team to look after their children during their holiday break. While the children experience camp life in the mountains and create their special memories, this also buys a few precious hours each day for the adults to follow their passions and find that much-needed relaxation and ‘off’ switch before sharing stories of the day around the table over dinner, often served by a Verbier Exclusive Chef in one of our chalets.
Full-day camps are available for 6-14 year olds and follow the same schedule as the residential campers from 0900-1600. Mountain adventures or French/English language lessons occur in the mornings, with sports, excursions and team games ahead in the afternoons.
3-5 year-olds can join the morning-only ‘Marmot’ sessions, which provide the perfect introduction to all the fun and adventures that Verbier offers for all ages in groups of no more than four.
Altitude Camps start the day at their chalet based in Patier, just a short walk or drive from most of our chalets, and many guests enjoy the more relaxing walk over after breakfast, which means you can wander back into town at your own pace via the shops and grab a coffee. Patier is also well located to walk up to the chapel and viewpoint at St Christophe (~30 minutes), from where you can follow the gentle ‘bisses’ network of irrigation waterways back around the mountainside to the top of Verbier.
Mountain Adventure age groups will enjoy various outdoor activities, sports and excursions that use and explore everything the wonderful mountains around Verbier offer. Children have fun, learn and build upon skills while making new friends in groups of no more than eight.
Marmots groups are no more than four, and activities take place on the grounds of Altitude’s Swiss chalet or outdoors in the surrounding area. The schedule includes a variety of sports, mountain adventures, arts & crafts, and team games.
