Explore snow-covered landscapes on a snowshoe hike combining nature, camaraderie, and wonder!
Snowshoe hiking is a wonderful way to experience the snowy mountains differently, away from the slopes and the noise of the resorts. Guided by a mountain leader, this day immerses you in the calming atmosphere of winter in the heart of the Mont Blanc massif.
Step by step, you cross silent forests, snow-covered alpine meadows, and sunlit clearings, with the towering peaks of the Dômes de Miage, the Aiguille de Bionnassay, or Mont Joly as a backdrop. The guide shares insights on the wildlife, tracks in the snow, and mountain life during the winter season.
Depending on the chosen outing, the route is adapted to provide an accessible and authentic day, combining exploration of the natural environment, the joy of walking, and the contemplation of landscapes. A suspended moment to recharge in the preserved nature of the Mont Blanc massif.
Depending on snow conditions, the outings will be conducted on snowshoes, with spikes, or on foot. Be sure to bring sturdy, high-ankle, waterproof hiking boots: no sneakers, low-cut shoes, or snow boots.
