Activity description

Escape to some of the most beautiful spots in the Alps on a snowshoe hike in Morzine!

This snowshoe hike from Morzine is an opportunity to venture into the wild Alps in the middle of winter, to discover the most beautiful snow-covered landscapes in the heart of the Haute-Savoie mountains. Accompanied by a state-qualified mountain leader, you will head off not only to the most beautiful spots in and around Morzine, but also to some unusual sites that will allow you to make the most of the Portes du Soleil and its viewpoints. Whether you are new to snowshoeing or not, you will enjoy an experience tailored to your level and desires, and only in the company of friends and/or family!

During your snowshoeing excursion in Morzine, which can take place at some different locations (Plateau de Loëx, Col de Cou, Col Ratti, Col de Joux-Plane, etc.), you can choose between 2 main spots: the wild Vallée de la Manche and its abundant snow cover or Super Morzine and its breathtaking panoramic views. Depending on your itinerary, you will be able to admire Mont Blanc, the Dents du Midi and many other panoramic views of the Northern Alps, not to mention the typical chalets and beautiful beech and spruce forests, as well as the sight of chamois or birds of prey for the lucky ones!

Enjoy the magic of winter in the Haute-Savoie during your snowshoe hike in Morzine, with the option of a short introduction to igloo building if you opt for the igloo option!

This was great fun. A bit of exercise and getting to grips with the snowshoes but not too strenuous for any of us. If you go for the igloo option, it’s best if you have at least four people to share the work.

Really enjoyed it ; picked us up and went to a quiet valley for snowshoeing.very knowledgeable about local flora and fauna

  • 5 / 5

We went to places where we were the only people. It was so quiet except for the bursts of bird song. We saw the shy wild goats, prints of the white winter hare and circling eagles. The views of the surrounding mountains were astonishing. The actual sport of snowshoeing gave one a superb workout. It is like Nordic walking, easy to master but so much more of workout. Brilliant for all ages and levels of fitness and doesn't matter if in a group or alone-everyone chats
