If the list of activities with their own pages (in the top menu) isn't enough, then here's a list of some more things you might fancy trying.
Imagine a 19th-century botanist and priest from Les Gets in search of a sacred plant, who embarked on three missions to China and a few more hazardous voyages, and step into a unique botanical garden combining history and botanical treasures. The Delavay Garden is located in the beautiful setting of the Lac des Écoles, and features plants and shrubs discovered 150 years ago by Father Jean-Marie Delavay in the mountains of Yunnan. It was created in 2017, and contributes to the preservation of a fascinating living heritage!
18 holes - 18 panoramic views, all in Les Gets’ newly refurbished golf course. This rather technical course is quite unique thanks to its diversity. Opened in 1995, the course has been constantly improved over the years, and is an 18-hole, 5,264-metre, par-70 course. Located in a wooded setting in the heart of Portes du Soleil, the Les Gets golf course has named each hole after one of the surrounding summits, with Mont Blanc, in line with the 7th hole, overlooking the entire course. The panoramic views are a real invitation to discover this exceptional site. The golf course maintains 30 golf carts, and lessons are available too.
Located just a few steps from the Lac des Ecoles, the Ranch du Lac is the ideal start point for the many Les Gets horse riding excursions these mountains have to offer. Their guides will accompany you for outings of all levels, from two or three hours to a full day.
The ultimate adrenaline sport with the most incredible scenery, if you can manage to keep your eyes open long enjoy to enjoy the views! Tandem skydiving is where the instructor is strapped to your back, so you are just along for the ride. After your briefing, you would be taken up to 4000m before your jump begins. This give 1500m of free fall before your instructor opens the parachute and flies you back down to earth.
You can also hire a donkey to accompany you on your walks. A donkey not only is excellent company, but will also happily carry your bags or your children.
Possibly the ultimate way to take in the alpine views, you can experience floating in the sky in a hot air balloon. The flights take place on the banks of Lake Geneva (about 1 hour away, we can arrange transport). One one side you'll have lake Geneva, and on the other the Alps with views to Mont Blanc.
A fun-filled, tactical, thrilling activity - the new laser game is located near the lake in Les Gets! It is completely safe and uses special equipment with a range of up to 150 m. Equipped with just a helmet and gun, you’ll be following the same rules as indoor Laser Tag except you’ll be operating in a larger, outdoor space!
