Les P'tits Flambeaux

On Thursday, February 19, 2026, as night falls, the French mountains will be mobilized for an exceptional event! During the same evening, all the French Ski Schools (ESF) are joining forces to simultaneously organize torchlight descents in French resorts, in partnership with the Association Nationale des Maires de Stations de
and Domaines Skiables de France.

The aim?
To raise as much money as possible for solidarity programs enabling children who are not fortunate enough to be able to go on vacation to discover our magnificent mountains and their benefits.

A magical event par excellence and a must on any winter mountain holiday, torchlit descents are a delight for young and old alike!
To take part in the festivities while doing a good deed, the public is invited to buy torches, all proceeds from which will be donated to 3 associations: Enfance et Montagne, Génération Montagne and Petits Princes through the "Famille Plus, la montagne solidaire" operation.

Let's light up our mountains for children on Thursday, February 19, 2026!
