Piloted Sit-Ski Experience

At ESi Val Cenis, you are guided by instructors trained in adaptive skiing. Our ski school and its instructors are fully prepared to welcome individuals with disabilities or reduced mobility. With over 25 years of experience, our specialist Emmanuelle focuses on adaptive skiing. Holding a Master’s degree in Adapted Physical Activity (STAPS) and serving as a trainer for TESSIER, she applies her expertise to provide personalized, safe guidance for every skier.

Adaptive skiing outings tailored to your level of independence

Since every individual is unique, the choice of skiing style and equipment is determined by your level of independence, as well as your abilities and goals. Thanks to our partnership with the Val Cenis-based APPASH association, we offer a wide range of adaptive skiing equipment. This allows us to provide the best-suited solution and make the mountains accessible to everyone.

It is designed for:

• people with little or no strength in their upper limbs,
• people with a progressive condition or particular physical frailty,
• and seniors. The corresponding equipment includes the Tandemski, Tandemflex, Tempo-duo, and Dualski® with a steering bar.

A modern-day ‘Ramasse’… in a private lesson! If you aren’t a skier*, discover the Val Cenis Vanoise ski area in a whole new way…
Tandemski is the solution that lets you join your children and grandchildren on the slopes… Suitable for people with reduced mobility… If an injury is keeping you off skis, choose Tandemski and glide along with your family.
