Ski at night

With the ESi instructors

Several ESi schools are organizing torchlight descents during the winter season. Accompanied by instructors, participants ski in groups on a route chosen according to the conditions and the required level. Some previous skiing experience is usually necessary to take part in the descent with peace of mind. By the light of the torches, each turn offers different sensations and an original way to enjoy the mountain after the slopes close.

A moment of conviviality

to be shared as a family

Beyond skiing, the torchlight descent is first and foremost a friendly moment to enjoy during your holidays. Depending on the school and the events organised in the resort, the evening may continue over a welcome drink with the ESi team. With family or friends, take this opportunity to meet the instructors, share a moment together and leave with a lasting memory of your stay in the mountains.
