Hiking outings, electric scooters, sled dog rides, activities are offered without snow. And with a thin layer of around ten centimeters, it is possible to slip. A track has been groomed. The French Ski School (ESF) offers initiation for beginners while also waiting for more white gold. Proof of the appeal of skiing, many schools have reserved weekday slots from January, ski clubs for Wednesdays, and leisure centers during the February holidays. And if there is still no snow, it is still possible to hike, take sled dog rides and hold vigils.
