Draz our mascot
Draz is a gentle dragon, born from the imagination of the Pralins and the contraction of dragon and Praz. Our mascot regularly comes to meet children at events held throughout the year, including Santa's arrival, the Council race, torchlight descents and the resort's major events.

Stroller circuits
The circuits, indicated by specific signs (pictogram showing a couple with a stroller) allow you to stroll along the banks of the Arly or reach the pretty hamlet of Cassioz, between Praz and Megève. The latter route requires a 4×4 baby carriage, which can be hired from one of the resort's sports stores.
> Circuit de l'Arly (marked in blue): It runs along the Arly and takes about 30 minutes. It provides access to the banks of the river, offering pleasant breaks in the undergrowth. Families with older children can let them play by the river and enjoy the natural surroundings.
> Circuit de la plaine des Belles (yellow signposted): "All-road" stroller circuit The yellow route is more urban and leads to the Plaine des Belles children's playground (40-minute loop). There, the little ones will be delighted by the many games (including a zip-line) and the multi-sports field.
> Circuit de Cassioz (marked in green): This third stroller circuit is reserved for "all-terrain" strollers. If you don't have one, you can hire one from the resort's sports stores.
