The Mont 4 Zipline stretches 1.4 km between Mont-Fort and Les Gentianes, just above the Tortin glacier. It quickly picks up speed, exceeding 100 km/h, with the wind in your face, the ice below and the panorama opening up before you, immense. Everything is more intense: the height, the cold, the light. Just you, the zip line and, above all, an adrenaline rush.
For those who prefer to remain on the ground, a two-minute walk from the Le Châble cable car is the skatepark with a bowl and various modules, as well as a pump track for beginner and advanced mountain bikers.
While teenagers are having fun at the funpark, there is a playground and picnic area for families right next door. What’s more, everything is free!

The Savoleyres-La Tzoumaz toboggan run is just that: a winding descent, the forest close by, the snow crunching underfoot, and that little rush of adrenaline when the slope picks up again. You steer by feel, you brake, you release, you pick up speed again.
It’s winter fun and adventure: turns, cold air on your face, and views of the valley between accelerations. Perfect for a break between runs… or to keep going just because it feels so good.
For beginners or younger children, the small Esserts slope in the village of Verbier allows for endless slides thanks to its small carpet lift that takes you back up the slope quickly and effortlessly.
