Tenpin Bowling
An underground bar with 4 tenpin bowling allies and pool tables. Great fun for all the family, but quite expensive
Located 50m down the hill from us, beside Le Vieux Four on the right and set back from the road.

Tandem Paragliding / Parapenting
My wife treated me to a tandem flight for my birthday (was she trying to tell me something?), it was brilliant. It's not too frightening either - well it wasn't until Christophe suggested some aerobatics! Great fun taking off and landing on skis, plus breathtaking views, highly recommended.
