At nightfall on Thursday 15 February 2024, the French mountain resorts will be rallying to bring you an exceptional event! During the same evening, all the Ecoles de Ski Français (ESF ski schools) are joining forces to organise simultaneous torchlight descents in the French ski resorts, in partnership with the Association Nationale des Maires de Stations de Montagne and the Domaines Skiables de France.
The goal is to raise as much money as possible for charity programmes that allow children who cannot afford to go on holiday to discover our magnificent mountains and their benefits.
Torchlight descents are truly magical events that you should not miss if you are on a winter holiday in the mountains, a treat for spectators of all ages!
To join in the fun and do a good deed at the same time, the public is invited to buy torches, with all proceeds going to 3 associations: Enfance et Montagne, Génération Montagne and Petits Princes through the operation "Famille Plus, la montagne solidaire".
Let's light up our mountains for children on Thursday 15 February 2024!
