Mountain seminar, winter sports, skiing incentive

The Ecrins Massif and the wild Alps in winter and the Vallons de la Meije "freeride" are waiting for your revitalisation and team building event in exceptional landscapes. Further south, the Mercantour Massif and the French Alps, just an hour from Nice airport, have 15 winter sports resorts, including Isola 2000, Auron and Valberg. They offer an ideal setting for your snow and mountain incentive: skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, dog sledding, snowmobiles, ice driving or snow Olympics, etc. all these activities are a must for the French Alps in winter. The proximity of the sea and the mountains on the French Riviera, unique in Europe, also makes it possible to combine all kinds of activities and provides the kind of surprises that lie behind unforgettable corporate events. Longitude 7, a Destination Management Company located in the region will lend its expertise in the bespoke organisation of your corporate seminar and will incorporate winter sports into it.

5 good reasons for choosing winter sports activities in the Provence-Alps-Riviera region for your seminar, incentive or team building event in the mountains

  • The magnificent winter of the French Southern Alps, the sun and clear blue sky, the general good rates of natural snowfall at the resorts, all provided to a large extent with snow-blowers in case of need

  • Snowshoeing, skiing or snowboarding 2000 m downhill in the Vallons de la Meige, evenings in igloos, ice climbing lessons, etc, for a return to basics in the mountain wilderness of Ecrins or Mercantour, during a training seminar firmly based on "nature and revitalisation"

  • Good humour, conviviality, team spirit specific to snow challenges and olympic sports, evoking distant childhood memories of snowball fights and sledging with pals

  • The possible creation of a surprise effect for participants on a convention or executive committee meeting: accommodation on the coast for work days and transfer to the French Alps in an hour and a half for a full day's sporting activities in the snow

  • The contrast of the very strong winter sun with the North of France and northern Europe

Our favourite winter sports moments in the Provence-Alps-Riviera region

  • The exhilarating feeling of controlling the skid while turning at full speed while ice go-karting on the official Andros Trophy course at Isola 2000

  • The view over La Meije and its magnificent North Face when the cable car reaches the Vallons de la Meije at an altitude of 3,200 m

  • Snowshoe walk from Gréolières les Neiges in the wild landscapes of the Grasse Pre-Alps, just an hour from the coast by car, with magnificent view points over the Mercantour Massif
