Les Gets Beginners Ski Week
What is the event?
The all new '1er Ski Festival' is a week long ski & snowboarding event, designed exclusively for beginners. Purchase an 'all-inclusive week pack' which includes your lift pass, ski / snowboard hire, lessons, entertainment and other activities. The beginners week event combines learning to ski or snowboard and discovering mountain activities, all set in a festival atmosphere in Les Gets.
Who is the beginners week event for?
This event is open to all adult beginners, regardless of age, who want to discover skiing or snowboarding in a relaxed setting. Here, there's no pressure, no competition - just the joy of having fun on the ski slopes of Les Gets.
You can also come as a couple - one beginner, one intermediate/advanced skier!
When is the event?
The beginners week event takes place between Saturday 21st March - Saturday 28th March 2026 in Les Gets, which is only 1 hour from Geneva Airport. There are welome drinks on the Saturday evening, and skiing lessons start on Sunday 22nd March for 6 days.
Where can I stay?
We have a lovely, large social chalet located 5 minutes walk from the main lifts and the centre of the village. Chalet Marjorie sleeps up to 42 guests across double/twin and triple rooms.
Included in your stay includes the chalet accommodation with log fire, outdoor hot tub & a sauna, plus you will get a hearty breakfast each morning, a make-your-own lunch baguette to go, afternoon tea & cake, plus a 3-course meal with wine every night! (except Wednesday evening, which is the chalet hosts night off).
How do I get there?
If you book Chalet Marjorie with us, you will get shared, return Geneva Airport transfers are included in the price. This simply means you share a mini-bus with other guests who will pick you up at Geneva Airport and drop you at the door of the chalet. Our shared transfers have flight window restrictions - you can view these on our Les Gets resort page, under the red 'LES GETS TRANSFERS' accordion.
