Family Camp Switzerland: Family Holidays in St. Bernard with Language Courses & Activities



Enjoy unforgettable family holidays in the beautiful St. Bernard region of the Swiss Alps. Our Family Camp combines language learning, adventure and relaxation for both children and parents.

While children and teenagers attend language courses in German, English or French, or improve their maths skills, parents are free to shape their stay exactly as they wish.

Two Options for Families


Family Camp
Enjoy an active holiday together in the mountains. Families can take part in workshops, excursions and evening activities, creating unforgettable memories and shared experiences. This option is ideal for parents who would like to spend their holidays actively with their children.

Family Workation
Would you like to combine work and family time? Thanks to reliable Wi-Fi and comfortable workspaces on site, you can stay productive while enjoying the Swiss Alps. While the children take part in the camp programme, parents can work, relax or explore the region independently. The perfect combination of workation and family holiday.

Accommodation for Families
Families stay in the same hotel as the camp participants. Depending on your needs, family rooms, double rooms and single rooms are available.

Children can either stay with their parents or share a room with their new friends.

All meals are included for the entire family.

Activities & Excursions in the Swiss Alps
Our Family Camp in St. Bernard offers a varied programme including sports, workshops, creative activities, excursions and evening entertainment.

In summer, spring or autumn, we explore Switzerland's mountains, lakes and charming towns together. The result is an unforgettable holiday experience for the whole family.

Participation in camp activities is entirely optional for parents. You decide whether you would like to join the programme or explore the region at your own pace.

Please note that with the Family Workation, activities, excursions and evening programmes are not included in the price.
