Into the Alps
After a morning of learning, it’s time for our campers to get outside.
Our afternoon programme makes the most of Beau Soleil’s incredible location in the Swiss Alps, with activities designed around each age group.
Junior Campers (8 - 10 years)
Juniors might spend their afternoons hiking in the mountains, tree climbing, playing laser games, bouncing through a trampoline park, visiting a Swiss chocolate factory or cooling off at a water park.
Teens (11 - 13 years) and Seniors Campers (14 - 17 years)
Teens and Seniors take on bigger adventures, with activities including canyoning, waterskiing, racket sports, yoga, paddleboarding and surfing.
During camp, Teens and Seniors enjoy a day in Lausanne, discovering one of Switzerland’s most vibrant cities, while Juniors head out for a fun-filled day at a cowboy-themed adventure park.
Every activity is another opportunity to try something new, spend time with friends and build confidence along the way.
