The Alps are suited to all ages… and we have the art of keeping young minds entertained! At Alpine Elements, we’ve spent more than a decade perfecting our Kids’ Clubs and we reckon we’ve got the formula right: Flexibility so you can drop in when you like and shorter, more intense, energetic sessions so kids aren’t bored and parents get to spend time with them too.
The Alps were made for families and we think the activities should be enjoyed with your kids – and not always without them! Our inclusive clubs allow time for parents to do their own thing; whether it’s hitting the bike trails or sunbathing by the hotel pool with a good book.

Learn MoreThere’s lots to do in our Active Kids Clubs and our highly skilled team of Kids Club Leaders take pride in creating a programme of fun and somewhat crazy activities which make the most of the outdoors. They will ensure your kids meet lots of new friends and learn new experiences along the way... One thing’s for sure, your children will be itching to come back for more!
Clubs are free, but you’ll need to pre-book to secure spaces before you go. Do this with your holiday booking, online or over the phone. After reservation, use your ‘My Holiday’ portal.
Our Active Club Leaders are chosen for their friendly, kind and outgoing natures, as well for their energy and enthusiasm. They’ll take an active role in caring for and giving your child an unforgettable experience… The sort of fun-loving professionals that you can trust to look after your little ones, (and your’ not so little ones!)
Each one of our Childcare Leaders is a British National, and specially recruited in the UK to work with our British clients overseas. Their references are meticulously checked and we carry out our own CRB checks.
We know that (most!) parents like to spend time with their kids and the Alps make it easy for parents and children to bond and share great times doing active stuff together, whether it’s our inclusive activities of White water rafting, biking, paddleboarding or more alternative pursuits like Canyoning and Via Ferrata.
We also understand that parents deserve a little 'me time' to discover some activities for themselves, or just relax and chill for a bit while our Active Club Leaders take the kids off your hands.
Our Kids’ Clubs are designed to bring children together; to give them new experiences whilst they make new friends and for teenagers to break the ice with other Teens’. One thing’s for sure, they’ll be itching to come back for more.
Our Active Kids Clubs run for five days a week. You’ll get four half-day sessions, mornings or afternoons and a Family Fun day on the fifth day for parents to join in. They run for 2 to 3 hours per session, which is the perfect duration. Not too long and more intense so we can MAX the fun and not overcook them!
You can book your child into Club and receive one session each day. You will be allocated your four sessions (mornings/afternoons) on arrival and we’ll do our best to fit in with your timetable. Pre-booking is essential to guarantee a place, so please do so before you travel.
Our clubs run from our exclusive Alpine Elements hotels, so if you’re staying elsewhere, you’ll be able to drop your child off and pick them up from club. Our Teen clubs run 2 or 3 times a week and helps them cut loose and hook up with other Teens’. Our Leaders will arrange games like football, tennis and other fun tournaments to help them break the ice with each other.
At the end of the week, we organise a very popular 'Family Fun Day' which allows parents to join in their kids and meet other families. It’s a sociable day out where we’ll do things like pack a picnic and head off up a gondola to the top of the mountain, or over to the lake to have a group walk, or organise in a GPS treasure hunt, perhaps a tennis tournament, ice skating or just swimming at the Aquatic centre in the sunshine.
We may even try an organised activity like the Adventure Park (tree top swings and aerial runways). It’s all about the fun and a bit of socialising with like-minded guests before the end of week Certificates and Awards ceremony where we say farewell to one another... for now.
Our clubs are always in great demand and places are limited. Pre-booking is essential to guarantee a place.
You’ll need to make sure they've got their swimming stuff, a towel, sun cream (preferably applied before club) and a change of clothes. And a teddy or a favourite toy for the young ones. We will supply drinks and snacks and plenty of rest breaks along the way.
The individual clubs run subject to minimum numbers. If numbers are low then we may combine clubs to create a more enjoyable experience for your children.
