Description

One of ALPADIA's language centres, Le Central-Résidence, is located in the centre of Lesen, Switzerland. Thanks to the fresh air and sunshine, the town is often visited for skiing and snowboarding. It is a so-called "family-friendly" location with a child-safe infrastructure. The magnificent Lake Geneva and Lavaux Vineyards are within a half-hour's drive away.

Children will live and study in the Alps. The entertainment programme is varied - excursions, art, sports and hiking. Children will see the pearl of Swiss history - Chillon castle - and go downhill in the water park and amusement park. Riding lessons, tennis, cooking classes and mountain biking are available at an additional cost. There's also a swimming pool, sun terrace and sports facilities on site. In the evenings students have a barbecue in the mountains, sing karaoke, watch movies and participate in sports tournaments. 

All rooms, dining hall and classrooms are located in the same building.
