Skiing and other local activities are excellent vectors for fun
and communication.
From
beginners to experienced skiiers, everyone will find tearing down
the slopes exciting and exhilirating. Ski resorts
are rather prestigeous and will reflect the image of prestige onto
your seminar. The message you wish to bring across to your participants
will inevitably be better perceived. Alpine
ski resorts are ideally situated. They are very easily accesible:
by air (Lyon, Geneva, Chambéry, Grenoble) and by train, direct
from Paris or London (Moûtiers, Aime and Bourg St Maurice
train stations). Numerous
resorts are equiped for hosting seminars, in terms of top class
hotels, convention centres, sports and activities for both skiers
and non-skiers.
llWhere
and when
The resort you choose for your incentve will depend on several criteria:
your budget, your target (internal, external, number of skiers and
non-skiers,
desired activities), the length of your stay and the amount of time
designated to work. School
holiday periods would rather be avoided (for reasons of cost and
availability). The most favourable periods would be the beginning
of December, then January and March. April is an equally good time
of the season, even though the Easter holidays fall over this period. Some
activities are more attractive and pleasant at certain periods of
the season, depending on the weather conditions (in April, days
are longer and warmer: all outdoor activities are recommended. In
January the Bobsleigh piste and open-air ice-rink are perfect options.)
