The rest of the year :
Pumptrack : on a bike, skateboard, rollerblade or even a scooter, young and old can enjoy the many bumps and banked turns while having fun.
Leisure area: watch the little ones play and run around, and enjoy the slides, spring games, swings and mini-tyrolean traverse. Picnic tables are also available, so you can relax in the fresh air.
Skatepark: for thrill-seekers, come and discover our modules to perfect your best tricks.
And there’s much more: other facilities are available free of charge, including two tennis courts, a volleyball court and a petanque pitch.
3. A local station On holiday, I’m not touching my car any more !
La Toussuire is located on a plateau at an altitude of 1,800m. This gives it the advantage of being easy and effortless to get around. All the shops are within easy reach.
