Courmayeur Mont Blanc Majors On Family Ski Week
Courmayeur Mont Blanc, nestled in the Italian Alps, is thrilled to introduce the return of Family Easter Ski Week, scheduled to run from 25th March to 1st April 2024, tailored for children aged 4 to 13.

From ski instruction and kids' clubs to high-end cuisine, parents can relish moments of tranquillity while their children partake in an array of activities on and off the slopes.
The resort works especially well for this incredible family experience, due to the compact area of the slopes as well as the children’s slopes being accessible for non-skiers too.

Family Easter Ski Week Experience - Monday 25th March - Monday 1st April
Hosted by Momentum Experiences, the Family Easter Ski Week offers families a relaxing ski break in the beautiful Italian Alps, with five days of group ski lessons as well as plenty of non-skiing activities. The Scuola Sci Monte Bianco - ski school - as well as representatives from Archy Events will provide group ski lessons to all children including a supervised lunch and engaging activities from morning through to night. Families can start their day at the ski school followed by lunch and then on to games and activities in and around the Kinderheim (the area where children up to 13 years are looked after for the day) until late afternoon. Tuesday and Thursday will be dedicated to a ‘party night’, including T-shirt tie-dye making or Courmayeur talent shows. These incredible memories will also be captured by the Momentum team so families will be able to cherish photos for a lifetime.
Once bookings are made at the Hotel Maison St Jean, guests don’t have to lift a finger with the Archy Events team on board. Due to its scenic location on the Italian side of Mont Blanc and famous alpine playground for families, the Family Easter Ski Week offers families a getaway to remember.
