Be apart of the ski patrol

 

Your safety, our priority

Every day of the season, the patrol ensures the safety of skiers and snowboarders by focusing on prevention and providing first aid on the mountain.

Prevention and safety are at the heart of all our decisions. Among other things, the patroller intervenes with people who do not respect the mountain’s code of conduct. Each patroller is specially trained to respond to all situations, even in the event of a major intervention. If you have any questions about our safety rules, please don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re here to give you peace of mind and a break from everyday worries.
