Snowboarding Holidays

Snowboarding only has a short official history, although it’s likely to have been around for a lot longer than that.
In 1965, an engineer called Sherman Poppen fastened two skis together to create a toy for his daughters.

Since then the sport has taken off dramatically and millions now enjoy the fun of attaching a board to their feet and careering down a piste or doing daring jumps from a slope.

Every Club Med resort that offers skiing also provides a snowboarding holiday experience.

Places in Japan like Sahoro Hokkaido, Tomamu Hokkaido, Kiroro Grand, Kiroro Peak or in China at Yabuli or Changbaishan introduces a thrilling snow escape where powdery perfect slopes are just waiting for discovery.

You can also head for Europe and especially in the French alps: Alpe d'Huez, Val Thorens and Les Arcs Panorama.

Alternatively, take a trip to North America and our Québec Charlevoix Resort in Canada.

Our all-inclusive Club Med packages allow you to fully immerse yourself in the world of snowboarding. We offer classes, equipment hire and passes as well as all the extras you expect from a Club Med holiday. Choose the package that suits your level of expertise, what you want to do and whether you’re taking a holiday with friends, partners or an entire family.

Get your snowboard and boots straight from the resort and have your locker rooms ready to use. Our all-inclusive package is perfect for those looking to snowboard without having the stress of gathering equipment outside the resort.

Club Med offers you a complete hire service of high-quality equipment, including boards, boots and helmets.
You can benefit from four levels of snowboards in the Club Med ski hire service for beginners, intermediates and advanced snowboarders.
*Please note hiring the equipment is at extra cost.

Club Med offers group courses suitable for everyone with the cost included in the price of your stay.

Professional instructors, who are perfectly familiar with the ski domain, will guide you over the runs best suited to your level of skill, to ensure you progress safely but surely in the best possible conditions, in small groups of around 12 people.

Kids can start snowboarding at Club Med from the age of 8 at Snowboard with introductory classes. Once they’re 12 or over they join the adults so everyone can slip, slide and spin together. Your level will be assessed so you go into the right class.
