1. One for All, All on Skis
Expectation : “ Skiing is hard, and I’m scared I’m not going to be good enough.”
Reality : Skiing is a sport accessible to all levels. Ski areas offer learning areas designed for beginners, as well as a selection of easy trails marked with a green circle.

2. Priority Safe Skiing

Expectation : “I’m scared of going down the slopes and of injuring myself.”
Reality : Safety is always the number one priority. Most ski areas offer a rental service where you can rent quality equipment, tailored to your needs and your abilities, guaranteeing safe and confident descents. A helmet, included in the “Never ending days” package, is essential to protect your head.

During the introduction lesson, you will not only learn to ski but also to :

• Fall correctly to prevent injuries

Moreover, ski areas display signage indicating the trails and their difficulty level. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to address them to a ski patroller or an employee of the ski area.

3. The Best Conditions to Ski

Expectation : “How do I know if it’s a good day to go skiing? I want the best conditions.”
Reality : Every day can be a great day to ski thanks to the technology and the maintenance work. Ski areas have expert teams and use snow canons to create the perfect ski conditions every day.

Before you leave, you can check the following :

• The ski areas page on our website to know the specific conditions.
• The Skicams to watch the live ski conditions.

Don’t forget to dress appropriately for the conditions :

• Use multiple layers.
• Plan breaks to warm up.
• Plan a snack to maintain your energy levels.

4. Sharing an Unforgettable Experience

Expectation : “I want to have a fun experience skiing.”
Reality : Skiing is much more than just a sport; it’s a fun adventure. When you ski, you can :
