In summer, the Les Gets family guide moves outdoors: the lake, the rail toboggan and the footpaths take over from the ski slopes. This page brings together summer activities suited to children, with the ages and conditions published by the tourist office. Dates for the 2027 season were not yet known on 9 November 2026.

The Lac des Écoles, your base for the day

At 1,240 m, above the village centre, the Lac des Écoles is the village’s summer leisure area. You will find:

• a swimming area supervised by qualified staff; the lake rules describe a flag system (green, orange, red, and no flag when swimming is unsupervised);
• the Wibit, an inflatable water park on the lake, open to swimmers over 8, with a KidsPark for swimmers aged 4 to 8, according to a Haute-Savoie Mont-Blanc Tourisme listing; Wibit access requires lake entry.

Swimming can be closed temporarily, including after water tests, so check its status before you go. Everything about the site, its surroundings and access is on the Lac des Écoles page.

The all-season toboggan at Les Perrières

At the village entrance, in the Perrières area, the all-season toboggan is a two-seater rail toboggan:

It runs year round on a schedule published by the operator. The free Perrières car park is right next to it and served by the shuttle. The Multi Pass gives a discount.

Perrières Aventures

Next to the toboggan, Perrières Aventures is a children’s play area with electric mini-karts, trampolines and inflatables, run on tokens. The Perrières Aventures games are included in the Multi Pass in Les Gets, according to the tourist office.

First rides: the Kid Zone

The Les Gets bike park has a Kid Zone, along with a Coaching Track and pump tracks, according to the listing published by Haute-Savoie Mont-Blanc Tourisme; the tourist office’s bike page does not mention the pump tracks. Ages and required equipment are not specified in the sources consulted. How the bike area works is explained on the Les Gets bike park page.

Easy walks

The tourist office waymarks summer paths, several of which are graded easy and suitable for families:

• Peat Bog Trail (Sentier de la Tourbière): 2.7 km, 82 m of ascent, starting from the tourist office, very easy;
• Tadpole Trail (Sentier des Têtards): 3 km, 70 m of ascent, on the Chavannes massif, suitable for an all-terrain pushchair;
• Sentier des Planètes: 5.6 km, 138 m of ascent, starting from the top of the Mont Chéry gondola, easy.

Longer routes are described on the hiking in Les Gets page.

Golf, for older children

The Les Gets golf course is an 18-hole, par-70 course of 5,156 m, at 1,430 m on the Chavannes ridge. In 2026, the tourist office listing gave opening dates of 10 June to 8 October. The driving range is included in the Multi Pass. Options for children and beginners should be discussed with the golf club; see also the Les Gets golf page.

The Portes du Soleil Multi Pass

In 2026 the Multi Pass gave access to more than 70 activities across the 12 Portes du Soleil resorts. In Les Gets it includes:

• pedestrian access to the Mont Chéry gondola and the La Pointe and Chavannes chairlifts;
• one showing a day at Le Club cinema;
• the Lac des Écoles and the mechanical music museum;
• a visit to the Perrières cheese dairy (fruitière);
• the golf driving range and the Perrières Aventures games.

It also gives discounts on the Wibit, the all-season toboggan, Alta Lumina, spas, and bike hire and lessons. Its 2026 validity period differed between resorts; prices are not given here. The little tourist train runs a “Patrimoine” (heritage) circuit in the morning, free with the Multi Pass and for under-5s, and a free “Touristique” circuit in the afternoon between the centre and the lake leisure area, according to the town hall.

And treetop adventures?

A treetop adventure course (Aventure Parc, at La Gibannaz) is listed by a third-party leisure directory, but no official source confirms it. It is therefore not recommended here: check with the tourist office before making the trip.
