The ESF torchlit descent is one of those attractions that everyone remembers seeing for the first time, a true Alpine classic.

The members of the ESF ski school come down the Pléney with flaming torches in hand and create a line of fire that weaves into town. Sip on a free vin chaud and watch the fabulous fireworks display afterwards from the Pleney stadium.

A firm family favourite, not to be missed. Free entry.

Venue

Stade du Pleney
