Morzine - activity suggestions for a broken arm

3 replies

We are off to Morzine on the weekend for a family activity holiday but my 10 year old broke her arm last week. There’s no cast as it’s an upper arm break, and she’s been told to wean off using a sling, but not to take part in sports for 6 weeks.
So the planned canyoning, rafting and zip line are out, and I’m not sure it would be wise to try the summer luge or even swimming.
We’ve had some good suggestions of walks/boating from our chalet owner, but has anyone else who has been to Morzine or the surrounding areas got any bright ideas how I can make her week special when her cousins and sister are off doing more exciting activities?

If you have a car there are some nice places to visit nearby; Les Gets, the lake at Montriand, the goat village (stinky!). You can get the ski lift up from Morzine and have great views of Mont Blanc and get a drink at the bar at the top. There's a market in Morzine and some lovely cafes for coffee and crepes or cakes. Watching the parascenders is quite fun. There are horse drawn traps in Morzine that take tourists round. Although having a broken arm is obviously a bit limiting, I hope you find things to do and have fun.

Le Dahu hotel has spa treatments for children. They also have child-sized robes and slippers if you want to use the sauna and steam room and make a day of it.
The cinema often shows films in English.
You could take the Pleney Gondola. It has an amazing view of Morzine, the Chablais and Mont Blanc.
There’s quite a bit to do in Evian.

Thank you both. It will be nice to spend some quality time with her, I’m sure it will be a lovely week.
