International Spring, Summer and Winter camps for kids in Switzerland
Since 1987, Les Elfes International - Spring, Summer and Winter Camps - has provided children and teenagers from around the world with holidays that combine the discovery and the practice of new exciting sports with learning and perfecting languages (French, Spanish, German, and English)
Children and teenagers discover other cultures and make new friends.
Activities are designed to promote leadership and teamwork and to challenge students toward excellence in a way that maximized both personal and group development and enhances self-confidence and interpersonal skills.
Each child's program of activities reflects his or her personal aptitudes and choices. Children return home with great memories of their holidays, whether in summer or winter. Les Elfes is the only camp to welcome children from all over the world from 1-8 weeks every Saturday from 1st December until 31st August.
Les Elfes has been operating since 1987, and the resort of Verbier, known worldwide, became the main base of Les Elfes with the construction of our own campus with its 140 beds and sports fields in 1995.
Five years later in 2000, Les Elfes opened new campuses in Crans-Montana with 50 beds and in Villars with a further 50 beds.
To keep up with growth, Les Elfes has bought a new camp in La Tzoumaz (also known as Verbier North) with a new 60-bed building.
Taking all these camps together, Les Elfes has a total capacity of 400 beds for students during each camp season.
In 1987, we welcomed 500 students per year, and now we are delighted to welcome over 6000 campers from 50 nations per year as well as around 200 International schools that take part in one of the numerous programs offered by Les Elfes.
The head office is located in Verbier outside the main campus and Les Elfes employs a total of 100 staff working in different fields, specially during summer.
