Reception
The GME is only accessible with a manual wheelchair, the staff is used to the chairs, they will help you to get in and out of the cabin.
In order to get the most out of your ski lesson, we advise you to dress warmly.
A protective cover (duvet type) will be lent to you for the tandemski.
If you are in an electric wheelchair and do not have a manual chair, you will have to reach Samoens 1600 by road (11km) and park at the TGD car park (just after the tunnel).
A space is reserved on the snow front. Your instructor will pick you up here.
