Nurseries | Alpies | Teen Rangers | Cocoa Club | Baby Listening/ Child Patrol services
Our Teen Rangers programme is a fun and active club for teenagers aged 12-15, who want to spend some time apart from their parents on holiday, to share some fun in the company of others their own age.
The Teen Rangers programme runs in Chamonix and Belle Plagne from 18th July to the end of the season, on the same main days as the Alpies Club (Mondays, Wednesdays & Fridays), to enable all the family's children simultaneous fun time, whilst parents enjoy their time out doing their own thing.
The Teen Rangers days will be full and focussed, and concentrate on activities out and about in the mountains, with all groups led by one of our staff team of Esprit Rangers. They will have one main activity per day, but may participate in others en route or return.
In the evenings, we appreciate that teenagers need more substantial meals than their younger siblings, so the Teen Rangers will have their own dedicated table in the dining-room for their 'Round the World' evening meals, starting at 7pm, so parents can enjoy their canapés in peace!
On two evenings a week the Teen Rangers will 'hit the town' for a pizza or a fondue, go bowling or ice-skating, and just enjoy time away from base - clearly with an Esprit Ranger with them at all times.
The cost of £199 per teen is all-inclusive - all activities, transport, equipment, instructors where applicable, packed lunch, snacks and the two evenings out are all included in this price.
| Example Activities | Monday | Wednesday | Friday |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belle Plagne | Archery | Mountain-Boarding | Quad Biking |
| Chamonix | Glacier Hike & ice-Climbing | Mountain Biking | Whire-Water Rafting |
| We do our very best to adhere to the programme outlined above, but must reserve the right to change any of these activities, subject to local conditions, weather or safety reasons, availability of guides, number of participating children etc. | |||
To enable parents to relax and enjoy their evening meals without worrying about their children, we offer our FREE Cocoa Club in all our four Alpies resorts on six evenings a week.
In Saas Fee, Chamonix, Belle Plagne and Kaprun there is a location where the Cocoa Club is based, usually one of the child care rooms, where an Esprit member of staff will supervise all children (aged 3 plus) not yet asleep, from 7.30-10.00pm.
The evening's activities are very much guided by the children's own energies and wishes, but will include board games, rehearsals for the Alpies Show, hot chocolate and a weekly mini-disco or other glamorous event!
For children aged four months and over, a Baby-Listening/Child Patrol Service is provided free of charge from 7.30pm-11pm in all our chalets and Chalet Hotels on the staff night off (generally Tuesdays), when we do not provide evening meals.
On all other evenings, we also offer a free baby-listening patrol in all our Chalet Hotels from 7.30pm-11pm, to allow parents to enjoy their dinner in comfort.
