Whether you\u2019re visiting Les Carroz during winter or summer, a trip on the Speed Dragoz<\/a> is always a great family-friendly option, especially if you\u2019re looking for a less physically demanding activity. It takes just six minutes to get down the hill on this Alpine coaster at the foot of the Kedeuze gondola, which is open to children as young as four (accompanied by an adult). There are some tight turns, steep banks and forest runs to add to the fun; but if you\u2019re riding tandem, one of you can use a VR headset which will transport you into the land of Dragoz monsters, or a Wild West bank robbery!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
