The 10 best things to do with kids in Montgenevre

Some mention collisions, but the spacing between departures is actually well managed. If you're moving slowly down the track, don't be surprised if someone catches up to you. The descent is thrilling, well-marked, and the staff gives clear instructions before departure. The braking system is easy to use, even for beginners, and the sharp turns are clearly indicated. 👍 However, the seat is hard, and after each steep drop, you're thrown backward. You finish the ride with your lower back in pieces. 🥴

Great fun activity. A nice little break from the ski day.

Super fun experience. 11,90€ (per adult) will get you up to the top with a funicular and down with the toboggan. Full control of speed with some fun little drops and hard turns

A super fun Alpine coaster, a little bumpy at certain doors, but mostly smooth and nice!!

This was such a fun thing to do, we did it twice, and as non skiers a quick way to get down the mountain

A lot of fun. Running both on summer and winter

Beautiful area and very high alpine coaster

A huge thanks to Clement for his recommendation. Despite having spent numerous ski seasons in Montgenèvre we had never eaten in the restaurant. Only ever coffee stops. What a pleasant surprise, outstanding quality food, attentive and professional staff and a great atmosphere. We will be back on regular visits!

Stunning views which can be viewed from inside as well as from the vast balcony outside. We skied there several times for lunch. Highly recommend.

A great place for a lunch with a great « café gourmand »

Lovely view and delicious food! Highly recommend the tartiflette, mango cheesecake and lemon meringue pie 🤤🤤🤤

Whilst the staff are polite, the management have instituted needless policies that take offence if you want to keep your gear near you, rather than next to the sign that says “we won’t take any responsibility if it’s stolen”. A much more sensible approach could be taken with no detriment to the atmosphere or service.

If you ski, you should go here. , had an amazing time with my family and would thoroughly recommend

Superb food. We had the plat du jour: delicious fish (cooked well) with rice and vegetables. For dessert the pineapple tarte tatin: very tasty,.with yummy rum-raisin ice-cream. Service middling - it's busy, and they struggle. Perhaps they'd have more time if the staff didn't have to go and dance to sudden, deafening club music every twenty minutes for people's birthdays or something. Completely kills the vibe of this beautiful mountain dining experience. (I don't mind the soft background music)

We found the staff here to be quite rude. The waiter with tattoos clearly didn’t want to be working here, after pouring our wine he slammed the bottle down on the table, splashing one of our party with red wine. The lady waiter started clearing our plates before everyone had finished eating, she reached across someone who was still eating to clear another plate. It is a pity, as the food was pretty good, the pizza I had was excellent and the rest of our party seemed happy with their food.

A very welcome addition to the Montgenevre restaurant scene - which was looking a bit sparse a few years back. Very nice food, friendly attentive staff, good drinks and wine list, a bright modern welcoming restaurant that had a nice buzz each night we ate there. One disappointment was we genuinely couldn’t find a starter we fancied, sorry, but the pudding menu more than made up for that disappointment - the lemon meringue pie delicious!

First told they were full however we pressed and got a table. Ordered wine and prosecco, prosecco was flat and asked for it to be changed, staff said there wasn't anymore so was told it would be taken off the bill but the wait staff said drink it if we wanted to, not a problem. Food was good. When we came to pay, the guy taking payment was very rude and ruined what was generally a decent meal.

Amazing pizza, amazing spritz amazing everything and owner is so so kind:)

Regular visitors to the resort and this restaurant and they never disappoint. Despite a range of allergies in our family, they were very accommodating and we all came away very satisfied. Difficult to pinpoint one dish but the artichoke burrata starter was incredible

Came here for lunch with a big group (10) in summer. Restaurant was packed so staff had to work hard to serve everyone, but did great. Food was really good, especially the chips, the kids pasta pesto and pizza crust was 5 star delicious. Defo would come again!

Fabulous food, beautifully presented and great value for the price.

⚠️AVOID!!!! It is the place to relax. It has a heated pool outside (this is the coolest), it has 2 saunas. the biggest shame is the locker room. Small wardrobes, children, women, men, all in one place. You can't take a slanderous shower. In winter, you come from skiing with children with winter jackets, fleeces, blankets, you have nowhere to put them, they have no hooks, you have nowhere to change... terrible. Ladies walk around in underwear, men wash at .... it is something miserable. 5-6 dryers for 20 people.... Avoid as much as you can!!!!

Not a big swimming pool, no option to swim, not many space for aqua massage. Saunas are spacious. Weird policy about "tight swimsuit" for men.

It's a wonderful, clean and functioning pool, saunas, hot tubs etc. The adult area is worth the extra if you like saunas, but I'm not sure the extra is worth it personally. The adult outdoor pool has a much nicer view though and is warmer. It is pricey, but it's also good quality and good service. The gym is small, but practically empty and worth the €15 for the week.

Fun thermal pools with many features, but fairly small. The most annoying thing is the fact that men are not allowed to wear shorts and we had to buy swim briefs. Also, there is a single locker room so you can't really take a shower, and you have to use the enclosed tiny changing rooms. They also have a weird policy about shoes and no flip flops allowed. It was fine but not great.

Brilliant facilty to keep up the fitness on holiday, very clean with friendly, helpful staff and great views. Could improve the level of gym equipment however with a WattBike or Matrix spinner rather than the very basics

beautiful facilities, very clean. steam room and sauna are perfect to relax in and relieve aching muscles, lazy river sends you flying around the place, so fun. jacuzzi nearly made me melt, and the heated outdoor pool is an incredible experience with an amazing view. good value for money, and all the staff are so friendly. Blondine was so helpful, really made it a beautiful experience. 🤍🤍

Very average. The majority of the spa appeals to families with little children so every area was more of a play zone than a relaxing spa. The hot tub wasn’t hot, slightly warm with bubbling jets pumping in cold water. The sauna and steam room could, at minimum, include a clock so you can see how long you’re in there, especially when the instructions on the doors tell you not to exceed 15 minutes. Really it’s very average but this is what there is in the town so just manage your expectations and at least the price is fair.

Great, intimate restaurant. Feels like a proper French bistro in the resort. Excellent prices, bring cash. Shout out to Mark for friendly service this last week.

Where to start - from the moment we stepped foot inside we received the warmest of welcomes, Mich and Sasha showed us to the table and produced a huge menu with local dishes and a superb value set menu. The result was that we are there 6 out of 7 nights - French onion soup and vegetable soups were delicious, boiling hot and very filling, some of the tastiest steaks we have ever had with a homemade pepper sauce, the duck with honey sauce was so tender and delicious, Le Briande was a wonderful mix of veg and meat with a béchamel sauce and cheese, the desserts were amazing and huge, my favourite being the grand marniér crépe that Mich lights in front of you. We always opted for the house wine which was very nice and great value, like the whole bill really, 3 of us eating 3 courses and drinking all night for never more than 80 Euros, and a beautiful shot of ginépé to finish. But for me, the fact that the owner would take no money from 2 students who ate there was beyond kindness. We were overwhelmed, as were they. We spoke to his staff and he takes great care of them, he’s highly amusing in a quiet way and with a full restaurant there is no rushing just smooth service and great food. Thank you all for making our holiday. Oh and I loved the duck salad too

I had pizza and it was good. Friends ordered other different dishes and they were all satisfied. Service is good and fast. It requires a reservation in advance.

Great lunch for warm up and hot meal and or evening meal for Racelette which is amazing best meal of the week 😀 At the bottom of the slopes within the village .

Nice local restaurant. Enjoyed and very friendly owner

Authentic little French restaurant serving great food at very fair prices. Highlights included the goats cheese salad, the tartiflette, the cote de beouf (massive) and the duck. Service was excellent, friendly and I would highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner. 👍🏼

Great value and good quality food. Their €14.50 lunch 3 course meal is particularly good. Owner and staff nice too. No cards - cash only so prepare. Bar/restaurant aimed as much at locals as tourists so do not expect large vegan/gluten free/specific dietary options. English menus are available. Great little restaurant with quality food at reasonable prices. 5 star

Great place for entire family, extremely friendly staff, reasonable pricing. And lots of activities, much more than regular indoor halls.

A lot of fun for the entire family. Ages: 3, 5, 7, 9 and 2 X 65+ !!! 😎

Really good fun!!

Free for 2-4 year olds

Great fun for all the kids, including those aged 33.

(Translated by Google) SIMPLY FANTASTIC!!! An adventure park that, unfortunately, I've never seen in Italy. For both adults and children, there's tons of fun on various courses created with nets. It's great to experience everything without a harness, and especially wonderful to see even the youngest children being able to move independently through virtually all the areas. The owners are friendly and very polite. At the entrance, there's a bar area with comfortable sofas and umbrellas...the perfect relaxation area for parents who aren't ready for adventure. (Original) SEMPLICEMENTE FANTASTICO!!! Parco avventura che purtroppo in Italia non ho mai visto. Per grandi e piccini, tanto divertimento su diversi percorsi creati con reti. Bello sperimentare tutto senza imbracatura, e soprattutto bello vedere anche i bambini più piccoli potersi muovere in autonomia praticamente su tutte le aree. Gestori simpatici e molto educati. All’ingresso aree Bar con divani comodi e ombrelloni…perfetta zona relax per i genitori che non si lanciano all’avventura.

(Translated by Google) We had a great afternoon! We rediscovered our inner children thanks to the courses for young and old. The friendliness, the kindness towards our 4-year-old daughter, and the advice from Alexis and Elouan are a real plus for this park. We will come back with great pleasure! (Original) Nous avons passé une excellente après-midi ! Nous avons retrouvés nos ames d'enfants grâce aux parcours pour petits et grands. La sympathie, la bienveillance face à notre fille de 4ans, et les conseils d'Alexis et Elouan sont un vrai plus pour ce parc. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

(Translated by Google) Easy and very panoramic itinerary suitable for families (Original) Itinerario facile e molto panoramico adatto a famiglie

3 kids and my wife did a full week of ski school. Finding the meeting point 1st day was very tricky. But after that all was okay. The ESF shuttle bus took us 3 days to find and start using. The kids teachers were all lovely. They were all so nice to them and had such a laugh. And the younger ones skiing came on loads. My wife never had a teacher that could speak English. And was told that she would have to pay an extra €45 per day if she wanted a teacher that could speak to her in English. So she didn’t get a word of understandable instruction for a week. So she got some practice in but didn’t get the change to improve much.

Two years in row had lessons with ESF, with three different instructors how are all very capable and made me confident and improved my skills a lot. In general I found all the staff to be very relaxed and helpful, going for that extra mile. Special thanks to Martin, Oliver and Thibaut. With Martin we had to work around the conditions that we got, we needed to stay on the slopes, but he really helped improving my skills in making proper turns and keeping the right posture. With Oliver I had the blast that the conditions of snow were very good. We build the confidence on easier offpistes slopes to end with a decent to Braincon, which has been a epic experience! Thibaut guided my dad (110kg) down the slopes on a tandem. My dad cannot skihimself nor did he every tried it. Thibaut explains everything very well making my that more at ease in the tandem then on a chair at home! My dad had the experience of a life time. Thanks ESF Montgenèvre, you all rock!

Did 6 sessions snowboard classes with Davide. Amazing experience here. Davide is patient and explain every technique clearly. Highly recommend.

Had a fab 2 hour lesson with Lalou. Lovely man and not only very knowledgeable but an excellent instructor. An absolute credit and a great asset to your company. Defo 10/10😀👍⛷️

Thibaut is a wonderful instructor who make our skiing experience in Montgenevre perfect. He was so kind, patient and understanding, as a very nervous skier I felt immediately calm. He tailored our lessons to ensure my two sons were happy whilst waiting for me to catch them up! Thibaut is a credit to ESF and we would love to visit again to ski with him. Thank you so much.

Had a great week of lessons with the ESF. Matthieu took the kids. They came back every day having had lots of fun and better skiers too. It hasn’t always been like this, so Matthieu clearly did a great job. Olivier looked after the adults. We had such a great few days adapted to the weather and snow conditions, doing some avalanche training, off-piste, ski-touring and a family day trip to Sestriere / Sauze Doux. Olivier was also full of knowledge of the local area which made our week all the more interesting. As in previous years both our instructors spoke excellent English and wanted us to have a fun and safe time. Thanks to Olivier, Matthieu and ESF Montgenevre.

What a great ride it has been! I took private lessons to learn to ski at ESF Montgenèvre. After having had a few bad group starting lessons a few years ago, my confidence was very low and my anxiety level very high. Monitor Olivier took me under his wings, followed my pace and needs, while still taking me to the right level and learning me the right competences at each stage. And the most important part of it: he made me love skiing. After one day, I could already hit the slopes with my family. Looking forward to come back to Montgenèvre next time and level up the skills.
