SNOWSHOEING | Itinerary (groups) Fond des Fours ❄️🏔️
Experience your first night in a staffed mountain refuge in winter.
Treat yourself to a break and escape the hustle and bustle of the valley by heading up to the heights of Val d’Isère on snowshoes.
Starting from the village, this trek takes you into the Vanoise National Park, where, come winter, nature too seems to have taken a break. Yet there is a wealth of wildlife that has adapted to the harsh climate and made this its year-round home. You might be lucky enough to spot a chamois scratching at the snow or a ibex perched atop a cliff. If not, you’ll learn to distinguish the tracks of a mountain hare from those of a fox, and to recognise the flight of a chough from that of an alpine snowfinch.
This two-day trek will take you right up to the 3,000-metre peaks, allow you to discover the majestic north face of Méan Martin, and treat you to some wonderful descents in powder snow. So don’t hesitate any longer – go for it!
